My first jumbo 168.001

Hello, I feel like this is a redial. I also share the images with 2 of my friends who are veteran omega collectors, they both believe this is a redial. Coincidentally, one of them just returned a constellation which I think is a bit similar to yours:

Hi @Mr Vo. Tks for sharing your watch pics in my necro post
Incidentally I just saw in local FB watch group an 168.001 (gold capped, 20m serial, etc). Here we go with watch pics.
To OFers please share your thoughts. Does the dial look legit in your opinion? The crown (not decagonal one) is correct?
Thanks in advance
PS: I hopefully send out mine for servicing. Then in watchmaker shop I will take clear pics of my dial without crystal and especially will take photos of dial underneath (out of curiosity of assessing its genuineness)

Hi, Let's see how the crosshair comes through Swiss made. But that's not necessarily the problem. The M A DE in Swiss made doesn't look right to me. Sorry I could be wrong by my untrained eyes.

Agreed. Especially suspicious this crosshair coming through “SWISS MADE”

As @hoipolloi pointed out previously I too think AUTOMATIC seems a bit larger than the rest of dial wordings. Am I too much anxious or it is really a concern? Please share your thoughts.
Below are some more dial photos

Hi rez photo added

Hello, I have the opportunity to buy an, in my eyes, nice omega constellation, Jumbo.
Do you think this is an authentic and in good shape watch worth €1000?

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Hi OFers. My 168.001 was in the hands of watchmaker. I took that opportunity to take some pics of the dial without crystal. Still reluctant to ascertain of its originality even if the dial’s sunburst looks correct. The problem is the lack of embossed ink on Omega wordings. Otherwise the 561 cal works good.
