Hi guys-

I'm in the market for a nice SM300 and came across this example. Everything looks alright, but I'm particularly curious about the lume on the dial not covering the entirety of the plot. Is that normal? How does everything else look?

Thanks all in advance!

 

A clumsy attempt at a relume?
But then again the 2 dots at 12 and 6 o'clock are there....hmmm....

 

I'm just not sure on the lume on this one, maybe an old relume?
Certainly the case (and case back) have been heavily polished.
As usual, depends on the price but not a show winner for me.

 

I think it's ok. You should inquire if the bezel turns freely and clicks. It's a $100-$200 job to repair that.

 

Looks pretty good. Lume not covering the plots fully is nothing new. The issues with this are polished case and incorrect crown, but dial+bezel+handset look legit to me.

 

I'm sure it's not a relume, and the price is good !
I wonder why it's not already sold ?

 

Price is average at best, not great.

 

Hands are replaced imho

 

I disagree. The dial and hands look fine to me. Based on this photo the crown looks wrong.

I don't think it's any kind of a deal at this price.

 

Not a deal, I agree, but nice examples are becoming expensive.
