That's it. 1350xxx is the case serial number.

My initial reaction is that it does look OK. I will check it against examples from Sala when I am able to. What do others think?

Very nice piece there Omarcastell! Recent pick up or something passed down in the family?

Case is verified correct for a ref 55216 in Sala. The dial - who knows? - the colored external tachymeter is unusual, but everything else looks correct to me so I'll stick with my initial impression of original.

I like the little Macchi too.

Agree that the multi-colored tachymeter is quite unusual. But I'm not spotting anything that's glaringly incorrect. Gut reaction: original dial, and a beautiful watch.
