Never seen this dial with lume dots and luminous sword hands to match ? Special order ? Added lume dots and then changed the original hands to match ?
I’m perplexed! Pictures of my similar model and reference numbers !

I asked the owner but he didn’t give that information yet. The dial seems 1960 and the hands are definitely not 1960 IMHO !

Could be a dial modification at the point of sale when the watch was bought at the Universal Dealer. UG did this often enough to service the customer and get them what they wanted. Nothing set in stone with UG.

Owner says 22279/1 !
The key is the s/n so you can see if that dial fits the period of the case, and frankly I’d not even consider this watch without caseback and movement pics.
