Gents, I bought this dial and a set of hands a couple of weeks ago.
Could you have a look them and let me know whether you see anything that would make you believe that they could not be authentic. The lume is coarsly granular, fades quickly after UV is removed. Color of the lume is best reflected on the first pic.

To me it looks a bit too clean to be original. I am more comfortable seeing some signs of aging, and the radium, which should with age result in some dial discolouration. Though, there are clean examples out there.

the Swiss made also looks very bold, I would cross examine thoroughly.

Here is mine, hope it helps.
