Hey guys,

Could give me your opinion if this is redialled? The dial has some patina markings on it and the writing and font looks right but just not sure? The cross hairs look a little strange thou?

Trying to get a pic of the movement.

Thanks

I vote yes, but it would definitely be an older redial. Crosshairs overlapping the hour markers and Omega symbol strike me as very odd.

That’s my thought as the line looks like it’s painted right over the omega symbol.

Older redial- not horrible, but not great. It’s getting harder to find original dialed Seamasters from this era that aren’t trashed.

Yikes -- did you zoom in on the OMEGA text? It's pretty bad. Uneven spacing on minute track is pretty good tell too, OP. And the marks on the seconds subdial.

Thanks Rudi99,

Learning n slowly. lol

Thanks guys for pointing out the other stuff. It's funny cause I don't see it at first and then you point out and I'm like well how did I not see
that! You are totally right the OMEGA is bad when you zoom in, the seconds on the two dials I notice once pointed out, but honestly would have missed that.

The crosshairs on the Omega symbol for me was the big one.
