Omega De Ville 151.0039 Cal. 711: Dial Variant Legit?

So it looks like all the information I can dig out of these photos is this:
151.0039 cal.711

I see plenty of examples online, but the watch face doesn't match exactly.
This specific one seems to have "De Ville" in cursive at 6, but most examples online seem to have that De Ville lettering at 12.

I've found one other watch that has this exact watch face - all being sold from Japan.

Any opinions / thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

That dial variant is around, there were so many changes to the De Ville branding, script, logo around that era, Omega couldn't really make up their mind what they wanted to do with the line for a good while in the 70s, it was the indecision that led to their bankruptcy and eventual revival in the 80s. There is also a similar model in Quartz that has a near identical dial

Thanks for the reply.

The link you sent is of the exact same watch from the rakuten.co.jp listing though hahaha
item_805944, seller "closer10/0510"

This is my first time buying a watch (much less a vintage) online, so trying to be as sure as possible

Hopefully this isn't going to be a waste of time 😀
