this is another replaced dial. At least this time hands have correct length...

Why replaced dial? I don’t see any reason and proof for that. It’s a legit UG dial, period correct.
We have seen here 7 examples with 3 different dial designs, minimum is 2 pieces of each design.
That -for me- is no proof that any of the three dial designs is incorrect for the reference. Maybe it is replaced, maybe not…

Hour and minute hands are replaced for both most probably. The steel ones match the dial but minute hand is slightly too long, the blued leaf hands have good length but don’t match the dial.

If it’s really ref.5160, then with this Christie’s watch it is certain the dial was not born in this case.

Word of warning on this one: https://www.ebay.nl/itm/195474473492

Whatever it is, it is not a UG 22492/224102. Even the movement is not correct

Too bad about the damage but very rare reference with (what used to be) an extremely cool dial: https://www.ebay.com/itm/115607320364

IMO…Over polished. Note they avoid a shot of the moon, that’s because its a service disc, as is the dial. Hands are strange. Service is needed as the hour counter is off. Not even close to being worth the asking price.

Anyone ever seen this crown? May be Verga (it looks similar). Can't post a link but it is an old Henry's auction lot (ID: 24640114; Katalog-Nummer: 06-03212)

1,2….1,3 …Mid 40’s for the case. Also the crown is a service replacement also.
