I found this dynamic for sale with a red face. I've seen plenty documented in blue, gold or silver, but little to nothing with a red dial?
Would that be a worry, or is it just a personal taste thing so consequently red isn't as popular or as well documented?
Just watching at the moment but might be tempted to leave a bid if it doesn't get to silly money.

Very interesting. It's also in the less common case, too.

That is the later 10XX and 1481 movement version case, more rounded than the first version with a less nicely decorated '70s movement. Though being front loader, the movement looking boring isnt really an issue as long as it can be made to run right. Not always guaranteed with a 10XX!

Would you say the red dial is original?

Yes, this is a known variant.

First time seeing it for me! Nothing looked repainted, glad it's confirmed now
