Looks correct and the bezel is rather nice. The big question is whether you like the dial/hands. These come in so many shades of patina, aged, and water damaged. There are plenty with some type of dial wear and relatively few that are crisp and all original. Likewise, price plays a big role. Before buying any sm300, just make sure you like it.

Overall it looks correct and in decent shape, but the lume colour would put me off.

I think the price also will be very important in the decsion to buy this model. From what i remeber i seen this model on some local website and the seller ask for a few (several) K 😀

Looking all original, black date window, I would expect manufactured in 1969 earliest, serial number 27mil.+

Dial needs a check with UVlight. Hour hand (at least) is imo relumed.Tritium should be olive-green .I can not see, if the case is polished.....(sides)

In my honest oppinion it is not relumed at all. I have seen many ways how tritium filled paint ages. As tritiumm is powder added to a paint (lacqer) and can age in many ways depending on the conditions (sun, damp,used lubricants etc). And even it was relumed, was done in the past with tritium, UV wont help in decision I think.

You want to see my BT, or all? 😀 OK, lets start with NOV66 BT
Your watch is interresting, as I have never seen BT dial with batton hands, but aged evenly, what is your SN please?
