    Hello OF! The seamaster text, specifically the E in Sea looks off to me. Are there variations of this dial beyond the slanted e that is commonly seen?

    Thanks in advance for any opinions.

    I think this is a redial. I could be wrong, but the quality of the print is not what it should be.

    I am not an expert, but second S in the Swiss word looks off as well.

    I just ran a google image search, the font is quite similar. I was surprised to see a lot of dials wherein the second 'S' in 'Swiss' was raised.

    I wonder if there is some sort of master Omega book with examples of every dial/model they've made. That would really help!

    I don't even think that a journey through time has every single dial variant.

    Found the same dial on a watch that looks original. Seems as if the font matches, maybe this dial isn't redone at all. Here's the comparison i'm talking about

    I think the dial is original but the photography is poor.

    Here's my original to compare. The first "e" is different to the second one.

    And mine also has the jumped up second S in SWISS.
