    Hi, I've been lurking on OF for a while and mainly been concentrating on Zeniths. I am also a fan of UG but am yet to acquire one, and my knowledge on them is limited.

    What do you guys think of this Tri-Compax? The seller says that the dial is original/untouched and that the case is unpolished. Is it priced fairly? Thanks!

    The way the date subdial crosses into the day and month apertures has me raising my eyebrows...

    Looks like a redial to me, most probably.

    As stated, this dial has been refinished.

    That is one appalling redial...with a listing to match. This seller is the very embodiment of the idiom, "out to lunch".
