·I purchased this watch from reddit from a well.known seller on there. I just learned that there are redials etc. I wanted the knowledge of the forum to take a look and see if this is possibly one. Thanks all

··Oooo subtitles!The pics are very high contrast and overexposed. If there are any issues with the dial surface they will not be visible there but I see nothing to worry about with the dial originality at least. There could well be bubbles in the lacquer which aren't visible but I don't think it is a redial. The case seems OK but does look a bit soft. You could have done worse.

··Ash @ ΩFSome dials did have the marker at 3:00 and others didn't it depends on the dial. Not a bad example, polished but not excessively, dial and crown are correct, better than the majority of dogleg pie-pans for certain.
How much was it?

·As @padders has already said, the biggest issue with the pics is that they have been manipulated to make the dial look better than it possibly is. But it doesn't show any obvious signs of being a re-dial. In fact it looks like a pretty nice watch overall. Should wear great on the wrist!

·Looks like crazing on the plexi, little tension cracks. Quite normal, that comes with age, just something to have in mind. I’d have the plexi replaced soon-ish.
By the way, when people here say the case is a little soft, this is a rather sharp lug for comparison:
It’s still attractive though, the dogleg shape is present.

·Nothing is wrong with your watch, it was a late production of 168.005 and it doesn't have the small marker at 3, the tops of hour markers were painted black, not black onyx inserts like the earlier production.
This is an earlier production for you to compare.
