No way, in my view, that the watch with that movement left the factory with that dial or crown.

As in zero chance.

I'd also assume that the case has been refinished.

That’s correct, but it presents very nicely.

If The Price is Right.

Sometimes a nice watch is just a nice watch. Good looker.

It's an attractive watch, don't get hung up on its appearance now vs as to how it may have left the factory. Depends on price.

I like it. Looks like a nice dial finish. Crown looks a bit off though. Not screwed on straight

I think it can be assumed that a dealer who would put together a watch like this will also put an outrageous price tag on it.

Of course it does. Probably about $1600

OP does not say how the watch is advertised- Is it being sold as all original or redialed and refinished? Care to share asking price?

That…Is pretty brazen but not surprising.

Tbf, 2700 is 30-ish% less than this one?

No idea if the dial is indeed original and untouched, or if it’s at all in line with market pricing, but I admit I do find that example very pretty

If it was redone then they did a very good job. Beautiful watch... but a bit expensive.
