the lume dots were most likely (re)applied at a later date. very common with period rolex. as are redials. is this one a redial? my eyes are not that great anymore...i would lean towards yes, as the 'datejust' is about the same size as 'rolex'. typically, this would be the case for the original font sizes of the earlier/est datejusts, the 6305 and 6605, and less likely so for the latter datejusts, the 1600/01/03s.
that being said, without seeing the innards yet, and if you overlook the lume dots, the dial is a beautiful shimmery silver, and the hour markers are typical stunners of their age.
if all else checks out, and the price is right (no more than 2k, plus or minus a few), it would be a good little beater/starter DJ.
