Wondering whether this is a redial or not and whether its a matching crystal?

·The dial is a little obscured by the scratched crystal but I would say that one looks original.

·Agree second one looks ok.
It would be worth putting forward your own thoughts and opinions when asking for help.

··Steve @ ΩFThe crystal configuration was an option.

·My thought was that the N looked suspect on the font on the dial
On later C-shapes, that style of N is actually correct, even though the curly N on the second watch in the thread is the most common one for these watches.
(See @mondodec 's essay on C-shpes, http://omega-constellation-collectors.blogspot.se/2008/12/constellation-c-shape-omegas-child-of.html)
The font on the upper script however 🤦🤮

·Newbie here, gonna practice my observation skills (seriously, all y'alls eye for the details can really be astonishing).
Anyway, first pic - shouldn't there be a "T Swiss Made T" given the tritium on the hands? Also, it may be obscured by the window, but after the date window, should there not be a small remnant of the hour marker?
Also, I got one of the late calibre 751 models with the new script 'N'.

·How do we know we are looking at the original hands? Given its a redial all options are open.
Thanks for the hint. It's an excellent point: if one suspects tampering of one component, then all components become suspect.
As a noob that it is a redial is not a 'given' to my eyes. I do not have any expertise, and would not even close to being able to say so based on the example above. So it is helpful to work backwards from the hands to draw a conclusion on the dial.

·Take three. The upper text on this drew my attention, I thought the 'M' looked a little odd.

·Hands are probably replaced. They have lume but I can't see any on the dial and no "T"s with Swiss made.

If you look through this recent thread you see lots of dials without T's but lumed hands/dials

·That's what I thought until I started looking at more of these C cases.
