This Speedy recently came up in a trade offer for me. I'm into it and would likely go for it but I'm very unfamiliar with this reference. So I'm looking for a little help. My concerns - The case looks refinished due to the lack of an edge between the polished and unpolished surfaces. The bezel looks different from other reputable examples with the font being slightly thicker. It also seems like the dial has been re-lumed given the greenish color of the hour markers but I'm not totally sure. I'd definitely like to see the full bracelet and the inner caseback. Is there anything else I should be questioning or looking for?
It's been over polished, especially the back. I think the dial is ok. The bezel numbers do look thick compared to the 1972 version I'm looking at in my hands right now. Unless the deal is really good I'd pass on this one.
