I am looking at a 14900 SC 62. I wanted to get opinions on this dial. The “M” in chronometer seems to be a little off? Does the “T” in automatic seem close to the “U”? Serial is in the 18 million range. Crown is a generic replacement

Case is a polished mess, it would be a pass on this alone.

Font looks OK compared with mine. The crown is wrong.

Font looks fine - crystal distortion/scratches making it look funky.

Interesting bespoke lume job.

Onyx inserts dials don’t come with lume pips ( especially inside the indices) or lumed hands on a dogleg.
Only onyx/lume combo on a 60s Constellation is on a 168.010.

Those lume pips make it look really odd

That’s because they are an aberration!

But - a previous owner obviously liked it that way.
