    I am not sure that is the dial lume that came with the watch when new... Is the printing on the dial all a-okay, and only looks partly rubbed-off in the pics due to scratches on the crystal?

    I think it is because of the crystal scratches...

    The minute marks look untidy.

    In this pic, the markers between 4 & 6 touch the crease. Between 10 & 11 there is an obvious gap.
    I'm no expert, just calling it as I see it.

    This one from Desmond's blog has much neater markers.
    But they often look untidy to me, so this doesn't mean redial, it's just something I notice.
    Everything else about the diall in question looks good, so it probably is. Photos aren't completely trustworthy.
