·If anyone out there in OF land snagged the Exotic Nina 885108 (blue dial) that just was listed for sale at the end of last week - and sold almost immediately - on Watchpool24, please private message me. I’d love to ask you something about it. Thanks in advance - and congrats!!
Adding a link and screen shot if helpful to jog someone’s “memory” from a few days ago…. 😉

Interesting dial indeed…
Price too high though.

··not the sharpest pencil in the ΩF drawerAbsolutely. I'm a bit on the fence about the dial but lean towards right (perhaps a later service dial)

Nothing about the dial looks original to me

·The silver dial is legit imho. Not sure about the black dial- definitely gives pause but I don't dismiss it outright... Here are some other 30 dials- ug was pretty crazy man - the more I see the more tolerance I have for what would've been outliers or written off a few years ago..
(that salmon dial was sold by our very own modest_proposal) I wish I had snagged it then 🤔

The black one from the OP (22442) is definitely OK, just the central chrono sweep is painted white. I have seen that one in flesh, it’s fine.
But the other one (OP eBay sale) just combines too many unique features - numbers upright on all subdials with rounded 3s and closed 6s and 9s all at the same time; Compax label wrapped around the subdial… all this can exist, I think, but I haven’t seen it all together on one dial yet. Still I wouldn’t say straight away that it is a redial…

·Why would you say so?
The subdial configuration with upright numerals is uncommon, but not unknown… though here it’s combined with rounded 3’s too…
But I don’t know… the dial is definitely strange.
Because of the subdial configurations plus the use of round 3 plus the double scale
there are examples of some of those elements on original dials but I don't believe I've ever seen them all together on one dial before like this
Not having been seen before is not proof it's not original, just going with probability, I could be wrong.

lots of okish watches for cheap prices these days
