Looks like a refinished dial......................but, you're in the Hamilton Collectors World now and on their planet redials are OK. It's just they way they roll.

 

This watch is a redial and I think the polishing of the case is a bit too aggressive.

Not that I'm in the habit of directing people to other forums, but the real Hamilton experts are here:

Most are more familiar with the pre WWII models, but there are a few who know the Buren microrotor series as well.

No, the Hamilton guys will tell you: you can't play Hamilton by Omega rules. They make the Hamilton rules, listen to them.
One word of caution, Hamiltonitis can be worse sometimes then Omega Syndrome. Be very careful or you could end-up with a cigar box full of those things before dinner. Hamilton's are like potato chips/crisps. I ended up with a few dozen before the fever broke. Now I'm immune as long as I buy one Omega a month.

 

International Dial redials with the correct enamel inlay and simulated aged radium lume are fine.



Poorly executed ones in the wrong color and with glopped on lume are not.

True , it does not look very good.

 

Looks redialed as others have said, and they can definitely become addicting. Lately I kind of lost my interest in Hamiltons, but I still want that enamel Boone...

 

Like this?



Sorry, I couldn't resist!

(this is a correctly refinished enamel-inlay dial, by the way)

 

Yes!
