··Sunburst dial fanWell, although your photos aren’t particularly clear, the dial looks okay to me. It very much depends on the price you’re being asked to pay but these late 60s, early 70s Geneves are fairly common and don’t really have a premium that might prompt anyone to redial them.
The seller should have indicated if it has been redialled and any reputable site or dealer would support your choice to return for a refund if it were undisclosed.
I’m assuming it has a very reliable 565 movement and these are cheap to service and parts are comparatively easy to obtain. The main thing for you to check are the hands and dial, which look fine.
Here’s my 166.041

·This watch looks good to me. I don't know the price but these late 60's Geneves have been under valued in my opinion and are good entry points into the vintage Omega world. The 5xx movements are in my opinion, among the best of Omega's in-house production.
