    dial in question_detail.JPG

    Hello experts,

    please let me know your thoughts about this dial - is it factory original or re-done?
    Sometimes it is hard to decide with these honey comb dials...
    Any help appreciated

    thanks

    Erich

    Erich, if you can't tell it's bound to be a tough one - you're an expert as much as any of us!
    For this one though I think it might be a redial - there is usually more separation between the arabic numbers and a ring like this - to me the gap is a bit too small.

    I'm voting redial too. There's too much variance in the alignment of the applied markers / numbers in relation to the minute / second track.

    This one I'd need to see up close and personal. The minutes register is in the right place. This is frequently missed on redials. Also, it has the "Swiss Made" at the bottom, although I can't see if the font on that looks familiar.

    If it's a redial, it's a pretty good one,
