·Focusing on black honeycomb/waffle dials, with some slight differences. Of course other colors can be used to demonstrate the same.
Starting off with four different watches with dial variations in print and positioning.
Which of these would without a doubt be all original ?
Could some be redials?
Or are all good?
Welcome to add more examples to illustrate.
The positioning of the Seamaster text, either parallel between 8 and 4 or lower closer to 7 and 4, is within a normal variation of the era. But it is interesting that it varied even within the same model and dial.
The thickness of the text ”automatic” also shows variation.
And the difference in how Seamaster is written with most variation how capital s and the last r looking like an elephant’s trunk.
Fake busters and redial-spotters weighing in with opinions in determining what’s original and what’s not, don’t always hit the mark.
