··ΩF InvestiGatorHard to say. These were known for having lume dots that were rather heavy, and you can see evidence of this on very worn out dials:
That being said, yours look a little too clean and too heavy for me.

·Does it glow in dark, if yes then it's relumed as the original wouldn't.
Also does relume affect the value much?

It’s not quite as clear cut as that unfortunately. Some original tritium still glows to some degree. Also a lack of glow doesn’t prove originality as many re-lumes don’t glow at all or can even recreate the feint glow of original tritium.
