    Always be wary of black dials - this one may be a refinish but hard to tell for sure with the low resolution photo. Price is too high though even if the dial is original and not repainted.

    If a refinish I wouldn't buy it at all. If you like it even with the refinish I would not pay more than 20 to 25% of the asking price.

    You mean like 250 €, right? Not 20-25 % off of the called for 960 €, correct? Thanks for the advise!

    Yea, it seems like pretty high on the asking price. Like the previous poster said, personally I wouldn't buy if it was a redial. However, I THINK these usually go in the $300-$600 USD range.
