At an 11 million serial number, it’s pretty early in the 321 run (earliest I’ve seen is in the 10 millions) and I’ve seen other early 321s that were not copper colored.
The movement doesn’t look abused. By itself, the movement is worth maybe $3k, assuming all is well with it, maybe less because of the color issue (can’t use as much as spares).
I wouldn’t buy a watch with such a redial. I'd groan every time I looked at it. A really good redial, maybe — these 40’s chronos are almost impossible to find with nice original dials — but not a redial that I still couldn’t even pretend about after four beers.
