Question on dial authenticity of UG 22295/1

Dear gentlemen,

Stumbled over this ug and was asking myself if this black dial is a genuine iteration. It looks like it was painted afterwards when you zoom inside the picture.
The sub hour hand look not original/ too thick.

Couldn't find it in the sala book with black dial and that big font. Also it seems the brighter dials had lume inside the rectangular indices - were it appears to be all black in the below one.

Especially the big font is leading me to doubt on authenticity.

In advance thank you very much for your support!

Looks like a redial

I don't have firsthand experience with this reference, but my first reaction was also re-dial. The sub-dials, and the overall look of the black dial finish were the first things that caught my eye. But I didn't really study the printing in detail. It would be better to have a clear straight-on photo without so much glare.

Sloppy surface of the dial says it all
