Dial has some spotting / bubbling on the surface, looks like an entirely original watch though, including the casebook seal which needs replacing. Not a bad piece though, I quite prefer the 551 variants with no-date, they're quite convenient when you rotate your watches a fair bit. Definitely get it serviced before using it too.

Thanks for sharing. I really like nodate almost in my daily watches I always prioritize them. May I ask if this one is original? I would be grateful to receive an answer from you
yes its original, are you servicing it yourself? If you are you'll want to get a new seal into it, the dial looks like its already seen enough moisture
Looks entirely original to me, too. The lugs are a little bit overpolished, but not too dramatically.
Lift angle for your timegrapher should be 49°. So real amplitude is even lower. Definitely needs a service. And yes, as said above, a ndw gasket.

May I ask if it is normal to only see bubbling on the pie-pan (outer) section of the dial? If so any idea what causes that?
Hands look to be relumed?
The tritium lime is missing from the dial indices. ‘Swiss made T’ denotes this ship’s be present.
yes bro, the seller told me that but it doesn't matter i need an answer on the dial and ref and movement overview
Yes, you can see that the lume has been removed from the indices.
OP, when you post a watch, you may get additional responses beyond the ones you requested. It's usually best just to accept them - this is the internet and everyone gets to post what they want.
