Speedmaster strange printing or fake ?!

Jr86 · Feb 7, 2021

Hey folks, I just bought my first omega speedmaster. However upon close inspection I see strange alignment on the printing.I spotted that the 12 and 24 do not align with the blue/black color, and the yellow hand sees that does have yellow on the side.

I was comparing with some examples on the internet and forum.. couldn’t find like this one. Do you think it’s fake?

Cheers

Huh. That would be unfortunate. I'm no expert, so I can't say. Did you pop the back off to check the movement? I'd probably do that next.
