Looking for opinions on this 2913?

I recently acquired this watch, and I believe it’s a reference 2913. I’m meeting with a watchmaker tomorrow to have the case back opened for confirmation. It does have the small Omega logo on the underside of the hesalite crystal. However, the handset is throwing me off—do you think it might be a service set? Also, how does the rest of the watch look to you?

At first glance, I'm inclined to say aftermarket hands and restored bezel inlay. Curious to hear from @kox.

Well, it's an early 2913-3, for starters. Bezel is authentic, but properly not original to the watch in that condition. Inlay not redone IMO. Handset is ok, just relumed.
Let's see what the inside reveals. @joe98 please share the serial, then I can say/help more.

@joe98 everything look ok and parts overall matching with serial etc.
I would get those hands relumed again, but otherwise a nice one 👍
Enjoy

@kox thank you for the information. I’m going to start looking for the original bracelet.
