·On a gieger counter if she's 70...
on the other hand you asked about the dial... but not about the lume or the correctness of the watch...
The correctness is a little bit off. Might need a service but I need to get some stuff home before I do more to the watch.

··Keeps his worms in a ball instead of a can.S SkoghWhat about the lume? Looked at different ones of the same model, all of them looked the same on the hands imo.

Also dial has lume, but what about the hands?

··Vintage Omega AficionadoActually think it's an original dial, it just doesn't belong to this watch. Looks like it belongs in a case with a smaller aperture.

Here's another one I looked at. Looks basically the same to me?
Edit: nvm. The dial looks a bit different.

·The case might have been replaced on mine. I'm not sure. But if I had to bet my life on it, I would say it's original and that those marks got there when someone pushed the movement back together poorly.

·Here's what I have learned from this forum, there is either lume on both the hands and dial, or there is lume on neither. If there was lume on the hands it would be where those black lines are.
Tritium is a less effective and less radioactive luminous substance than radium. Radium causes seriously negative health effects and hasn't been used in a long time. You can find a lot of information on that with a quick search.

··Keeps his worms in a ball instead of a can.Why
Why would the dial have lume but not the hands?
@X350 XJR has a point about dial-spacing and the case.
There are 2 questions that need to be asked and you asked only one of them. Is it a redial? No. The other question is the watch original to when it left the factory? That I question.

·Notice on those last two images how the gap between the case and hour markers is larger on your watch?
