Well the classic story, I have been offered this watch and it has a paticular dial of which I am not sure.
I would like to know if you would consider this dial as legit.
I found similar examples on MWR, and the owner says it is a rare version of the MOD dial. The rest of the watch is correct and I only have those two pics.
SoI am curious of what the members will say. Would you buy it ?
Thank you.

I am no expert on these but from the poor execution of the dial I vote for redial

I have seen this dial variation before once or twice. If I recall correctly, the explanation about the dial layout was that it was a MoD redial. However, I don't think there was any additional data to corroborate that. For me, the value of such a watch would be parts only. And before deciding on whether to buy I would like to see more pictures of the inside.

There's no question it's a redial - the only question is who did it. Others have hypothesized it is a MoD variant but because of the even poorer than the FA quality I have a lot of doubt about that. I agree with @Joe K. I would value this for its parts.
