Hi, do you think that this watch is refinished? IMO it could be old redial but I am not sure so want to hear another opinion. Thank you.

It looks more like its been cleaned and was in far worse condition before. The vast majority of Calibre 6xx watches are in very good to excellent condition and are cheap to buy, this is one of the crummier ones I’ve seen and would be worth less than the cost of servicing it.

Thank you. How would you value this one please ?

I’ve bought similar mint watches for $250-300, with that dial I would place it well under that. If you’re patient you can find Cal 6xx’s like this for around $300 on the bay without too much trouble. I just wouldn’t buy this its not a very good watch.

Agree with the above.
That said, dial looks original to me.

Just looks like a damaged original dial. I also wouldn't recommend buying it.

Hand looks wrong to me but I don't know that for sure...
