This might fly high, more than 50 bids already and some days left...
Interesting dial, uncommon case/lugs, even if the case looks a bit overpolished...
Hmm, let them have it. Roman + Arabic on the same dial--have we seen that with UG before?
Any Roman chrono is going to have Arabic on the subs...
Over-egging the cake?
What do you make of the inept marking....."unadjusted", "Swiss", "Seventeen jewels"?
Lack of space....small diameter, or added later?

From @LouS on a watch I own:
"Movement engravings were made in the US to comply with import regulations. They are found across a number of brands and movements, and frequently dismissed as inauthentic. They are genuine, in the same way as Fab. Suisse dials are in French-imported watches and that goofy lug punch is in Portuguese"
I could be wrong, but many of the hands, the dial, and crown all seem off on this watch.
Saw this example on Matthew Bain. Would really appreciate opinions before pulling the trigger.
