路About the 890101/01 I posted before
, the subdial at 3 is a 30-minute counter, as shown in the picture. But it clicks over to one minute immediately on starting the chronograph, so it's always one minute ahead.
As for the logo, the Polerouter ref. 869113/1 shown with it has the same U logo, and dates from 1966.

路I can't tell if this is a total franken or parts of it are original, The bezel is completely different from what I've seen but could it be original? The markings on the dial are different than the type b here, but the parts that are the same don't look reprinted to me, why would anyone take an original dial and print extra lines on it?

Well the seller lists it as a 22703, which looks wrong to me - arent those compaxes - not aerocompaxes? Also bezel on 22703 are not tachymeter I believe.

Did you even read the seller description? Thats always a good start...
"..the dial, restored over time, retains a strong vintage aesthetic...The watch is also fitted with an aftermarket black tachymeter bezel, which is not original to the watch".
Pretty clear and transparent, in my book - which also underlines that the value of this piece is likely to be the cost of its movement, and not a dollar above馃槈
