Dear all, I'm new in this forum even though I'm following it for a long time. I want to buy this watch,
but it looks to me there is something wrong. The dial does not look the original one but a redial. Can you help me?
Also in the back of the case there is a written?
An unusual feature is the engraving on the caseback, I suspect that this is an anniversary edition.

 

Dial looks geniue to me Have you tried searching the ref. number on google?? It's a good indication if dial and movement is original.
Regards

 

What does not convince me it the Swiss made written. Since the watch should be from 1970/79 I expect T swiss made T and not - swiss made -.
This is something to me strange

 

As pointed out by @krillan50 the reference number is necessary for an identification and a comparison with other exampels.
It's written on the inner side of the caseback

 

The owner did not share a picture of the case back and as you can see also the serial number on the mechanism is not readable. So I think that without this information it is better to donìt consider to buy it

 

What movement is that? I don't think ive ever seen that one

 

Could be a 1030...

 

In general, it looks to me is not easy to understand a good deal or watch from a Franklin one. Can somebody explain me the main step to follow with this example (picture below )?
The distance between the hours' markers and the watch borders is not the same for all of them.
From the serial number, it's possible to check that this model is from 1963 (a year in which effectively de Ville and Seamaster were used togheter on the dials ). So I would expect T swiss made T and not only swiss made.
I don't know how to use the reference number in the caseback.
Can somebody explain me as an example?
I would conclude that the mechanism is the original one but the dial is a redial

 

As far as I know "T" stands for "Tritium" and I see no tritium(lumen) on this dial and therefore I would not expect any T's on the dial.
About the authenticy of the dial; the placement of the "swiss made" concerns me as it usually are placed below the minutemarkers. Also the last "L" in "Deville" looks to be out of line (could be the photo though)

 

The watch in the first post looks completely correct to me. There are many examples of Omegas with lume of that period without Ts, I wouldn't worry about it.
