It's genuine. The only question is the dial, which appears almost certainly to be an older redial.

May I ask what of the dial suggests it to be a redial? I am not denying your input, only seeking clarification and self-learning.

Poor quality logo.

I am clearly leagues behind you guys. I looked through longiness logos of the period. The logo looks “normal” to me. What part of it is “poor quality”?

The crosshair on the sub-seconds dial already reveals that it has been repainted

As mentioned, the logo is not factory quality, and there were, to my knowledge, no original "cross-hair" sub-dials.

How come?

The photos are of very poor quality, so it is difficult to say whether it has been repainted based on such blurry images. What truly proves, beyond any doubt, that it has been repainted is the cross on the sub-seconds dial, as I have already pointed out to you.
