Omega constellation. Anybody saw dial like that?

Ome · Apr 10, 2021

As I wrote in the previous post, I would like to buy an Omega Constellation. I have the opportunity to buy that one. One more time I have problem with the dial. Constellation inscription looks wreid. Additionally only one index at 12 o'clock looks like gold plated piece. It is orginal constellation? Thanks for all your help.

Is there a particular giveaway that leads you to conclude it's a redial? Maybe the index mark to the right of the date window or at 7 o'clock?

The font is very suspect. I admit I'm no expert but if we compare the OP and this example of another 168.017 there is a difference.

The printing is no good. Look at a few hundred dials and then come back and look at this one. You'll see.

Interestingly, the 7 o'clock marker also looks like a replacement.
