Hi, What do you think, a little scratched, but is the dial original? I am quite confused on the differing Seamaster "S's". Best, Ian
Why? "Swiss Made" or "Swiss" Is somehow visible under the 6 Hour marker. "Flat" top "A"'s in Automatic. And this 1958 could already be post-coathanger "S". Could be legit. I Could be wrong also... By no means an expert on these. What raises more concerns/doubts to me are the lumen Dots. They just look to prestine for 58 years old radium.
Could well be a relume/refurbished dial. I'd question why there seems to be a discrepancy between the lume dots next to the numbers and those in the notches of the other hour markers. Another discrepancy/warning might be that the hands do not appear to have any lume which kind of defeats the purpose of having lumed hour markers Also, no details/shots of caseback and movement. Overall, and in my opinion only, not unattractive (then again, I've nothing against good redials/refurbishment), but a risk without further information and probably not a "collector" piece.
