    Hi all,

    I finally decided to create a new thread concerning this dial. I have a big doubt on it. What specialists think!
    I have already searched on the net (especially Polerouter.de) but still a doubt despite the fact I have never seen a Polerouter date without that specific mention on the dial and the cross hair thickness is suspicious to me.

    Not a specialist but looks a redial or, at least, the cross hairs were repainted and not very well, IMO.

    Aside thickness, the cross hairs are not in line with the hour markers at 6, 9, and 12 and they're "cutting" the "M" on Automatic by the middle.

    I also don't remeber seeing a Polerouter with date that was not a Polerouter Date but UG is always surprising me so just for that i wouldn't call it immediatly a redial

    I could do better with a ruler and Sharpie.

    Yes may be the cross hair has been added on the original dial...
