Hello everyone,

Considering buying this beautiful UG 12445 cal. 285. Can anyone please help assess dial originality?
The dial looks extremely well for it's age and I am wondering whether it's a redial or not.

I've seen the 12445 reference on both Medico-Compax and Uni-Compax models. Did UG use different the same reference number for both versions? (I know the Uni-Compax was produced under a multitude of reference numbers)

Thank you!

369 it is. 563 looks more convincing....

So you're thinking a modern redial?

Would you mind explaining why you think this? Always interested, just to build up my own chops.

The graphics are uncertain and incorrect. For example, the minute counter's font is coarse. But there are many small inaccuracies in general.
