Again: is the euro 1000 is exactly for what? This reprinted/freshly made Dial in pics 1 included ? If so, pay the euro 1000 . It will be a long search before you find an original. And then youupgrade your Railmaster and can always sell the one here to the next guy who is in the same pickle like you are now.

1000 Eur is for the dial + the relume job.
As said, I also have the original dial from the watch & the relume on that is even worse.
What could be a fair market price for this watch with the dial in question?

Do you have any pictures of the "even worse" dial?

Here you go. Same hands that have now been relumed.

So, your "original" Dial is repainted as well. With lousy relume. Don't buy a second relumed one. Send the first dial to somebody, who will relume hands and dial in the proper way. With old waterbased Tritium, tinted. Remove that first lume and do a good job. Lume on hands and dial should be not the same; because of the different surfaces. Brownish, but different shades. Euro 400 should be fine. If you can't find anybody, we do it. Have done many before. And, no, we do not show images of our work to others. That collectors community is quite small..... Kind regards.

I think it's better to have no dial than this dial.

I must admit that Achim is right. But no way leads to 1k Euro IMO.

Maybe the price point will be negotiable?

Edit:

Sorry, I didn't read the last posts. Yes, I agree with @watchyouwant it's maybe the best option to embellish the dial you already have instead of buying another wrong one.
