Can anyone tell me if this is an original Ranchero Dial?

If you go to Omega's vintage database, it appears that the Ranchero was made just in 1958 with the 284/285 movements. Is that correct?

I dont know about the entire watch, but the dial appears to be a refinish and the hands are fakes.
There are a number of ranchero models, with center and sub-second configurations.

The real Ranchero was made with cal. 267 (ref. 2990-1) and had subs.

I've seen that auction too, the only thing remotely close to a Ranchero is the movement, and even then the serial number is too high.

@adam78 also 2996 with cal.285.
