Can somebody please help identify whether the patina on the dial is genuine or not. I have searched for examples of this watch over the internet and none of the watches have such a rich yellow patina. This is why I am a bit unsure about it's authenticity.
I think the dial and hands are original, but it is possible that the numerals have been relumed. Crown is from a Seamaster and is not correct for this watch. A better than average specimen of this reference gatorcpa
It looks ok to me, I have a similar looing dial on my 2374/3. Be aware that the ring for holding the caseback is there
