    Found one Seamaster 30 that I am not sure if it is a redial or relume (or neither). Part of me thinks it is original lume, due to some of it missing/chipping and just looking kinda old, but to me it also looks like it could be newer. 7 o'clock marker shows what I mean in pic 2.

    Also, what could be the cause of what looks like scratches on the ratchet wheel (I am guessing that is what it is called) It almost looks like it is sanded down with sandpaper.

    Thanks for the help

    I could easily be wrong but the only model I'm aware of that looks like this is the PAF issued Seamaster 30. The lume looks old but off compared to originals. The font is really good. The hands are wrong. The crown is wrong. The case is over polished to a point that I wouldn't consider it if it was original. I also don't think the PAF seamaster had "swiss made".

    Thanks very much. More I looked at it, more I thought it is not right.
