Hi there

You have helped me before, and I am hoping that you will be able to again. I am in the market for a speedy, and I found one that could be interesting.
The speedy is a reference 3590.50.00. As far as my research goes this reference was produced until 1996 and had a tritium dial, right? Also the bracelet was another type than the more modern 3570.50 bracelet which it seems to me it has.
Could you take a look at this watch and point me in the right direction? Is this watch the correct reference? Have the dial been swapped to a newer one?
I am fully aware that I can change the bracelet, so that is not the most important thing.

What is the serial no for that? That looks awfully like a SuperLuminova dial so can’t be a 3590 unless it’s been swapped. The following 3570 was produced for a year with the earlier 861 movement and tritium dial but the later bracelet. That could be an early 3570 in fact. Or if the dial is SL then it could be much later. There may have been some tritium dialled 3570s made in 1996-7 that had no T marks so it is possibly it has tritium but I doubt it from the look.

Serial and movement is numbered 77048xxx. Can you make anything out of that?

Yes. In that case there is no way it could possibly be a 3590, has to be a 3570 as the former topped out at 48m serials, then there was a jump to 77m at the start of the 21st C. What you have there is a seller who is either ill informed, lazy or deceitful.
