Sorry I’m not the most familiar with this. what does that mean for the watch itself and the value?

Collector value is zero. Hands have also been replaced.

The watch is worth gold melt value plus maybe $100 for the movement as a parts watch.

I suspect it is selling for many times that price. Run away.

Appreciate this, how would someone tell it is redialed. Just so I don’t run into the same thing next time

In this case, even if you don't know what the original one looks like, the most obvious clue is that the 60 minute marks and the 12 hour marks don't align. Take 2 o'clock mark as an example, the 9 minute mark is much closer to the hour mark than the 11 minute mark. An Omega factory dial would never look like that.
