Can you elaborate any more on his comments and help a newbie learn? From what I saw, it looked correct - potentially the hands were relumed but hard to tell from the pictures. The case looks polished or potentially one of the fakes floating around...

Gladly! As per Jordan (I hope he doesn't mind me quoting him) - "the dial, while it's in decent shape overall, is missing all or most of its original lume. Inside of the lugs seem to have been polished which is very odd and the bezel is a replacement I think. It may be a genuine article, but it's relative pristine condition in comparison to the rest of the case and the off-center lume dot bothers me. I would get a second opinion, but the watch would be an easy pass for me. "

·Hello,
a short wake up call from Berlin!!😉 There is a Berthoud Chronograph in steel on ebay and under the radar.
It has an UG 386 movement, dial, hands and case looks all original to me. Sure condition of case and dial is used and the olive pushers(!!) have sign of wear, but i´m sure: with a little help it will be a real beauty!!
http://www.ebay.it/itm/Chronograph-Universal-Geneve-Berthoud-/252147598020?
I just decided not to bid because I found an other rarebird chrono from the 60´ies yesterday, that fits in my collection perfectly😉.
Only 7 hours to go, no offer and start price at 500€. Just go for it👍, I think it is a bargain.

·Not really a bargain I believe. Looks like a redial.

·If it's a redial I think it's a very good one... All hands are the perfect length, tachymeter lines up with chapter ring, weights are consistent... What makes you think it's a redial?
And below, a picture that has more refined printed name. I would have been more receptive to the below. (Picture from Internet)

·Here is an interesting Polerouter Date on ebay.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNIVERSAL-GENEVE-POLEROUTER-DATE-AUTOMATIC-GOLD-18-C-/371478629945?
I think the date window must be on the case back.
ps: they may have had an italian carabiniere on the project (no offence intended or implied).

·Really? I am already in doubt starting with the "Berthoud" I would say it is a bad logo job. But I am no Berthoud expert, it just lacks the refinement I find in UGs.

Have to be honest - the second one looks like the redialed one to me.
