Thanks for the quick response. I guess there seems to be something wrong with the watch dial too?!

··Vintage Omega AficionadoDial is aged, but we've seen a lot worse, at least it hasn't been refinished. More concerning is the huge gap in the tension ring, not supposed to be like that. Case is very polished as well. This one's had a hard life.

·It is my (somewhat limited) understanding that the cross hair should not be broken on models of this age, but would pass through the text. I could be wrong, though.

Thank you again for your valuable feedback! I will rather wait for a better watch than this.

Some debate with this particular reference, I've seen multiple examples of this reference with broken lines as seen on OPs example that I believe to be correct and original.
