    I personally do not like how the supposedly tritium lume on the dial, hands, bezel dot looks.

    Many things wrong with that, but I can see someone buying it just for the bezel.

    Is the bezel original?

    Probably not, I think the fonts look wrong, but it may look better than not having one, and there are many of these missing a bezel.

    That bezel doesn't look right at all imo.

    +1 for the bezel being not original. Can't say about the lume.

    All, totally, 100% fake !!

    A simple trick to id fake bezels: they don't have 120 teeth..

    Here is a nice 100% original untouched bezel :

    I think this example is a very nice reproduction.
