I think the dial could be a custom job, with the diamonds hand set.
The Grade 770 was the top of the line manual wind movement for Hamilton in the 1950's and 1960's. It was a high grade movement for the time. When you consider that you could get this movement in a gold-filled Hamilton for under $100 and a Patek at the time likely started around $1,000, to expect the movements to be equivalent was ludicrous.
However, Hamilton was considered the "American Patek" because they had the best movements made in the US at that time.
