Omega DeVille - redial or not?

Hi all,

Have been looking at this SMDV and somehow it seems a redial - the two As in Automatic seem to be different and the two Ls and Es in DE VILLE too.
As I am not really experienced, still find it difficult to trust my own judgement.

Can anyone help and advise on this?

Many thanks!

You will need to share more detailed photos and high resolution photos to get a definitive answer.

It's hard to tell from the pictures but it looks like the dial might have been partially touched up. The "De Ville" for me looks like it might have been added after the fact. The two L's for sure don't look right and just based on that I would avoid it.

Then it all comes down to if you’re a gambling man. Personally I wouldn’t 😀
