There are other examples exactly like this one, so I think they are legit. LouS agreed in other threads. Let's see your example ? I have a very old watchmaker from Austria, he told me he saw no lume ones like this example in the 60s-70s. I tend to believe him.

Dear OF friend, I don‘t want to question the originality of your nice piece. I was just a bit irritated by the bottom Statement on the dial. And the dots beyond the Hour markers made me think that there could be lume placed on them. But that is obviously not the case.
Best Hajo

Print is very precise, doesn't look like it ever had lume. UG anomalies seem to be in circulation. Confused myself about the Swiss T !

I don't know why I need to respond to this comment, but in consideration for the fact that we are all not native English speakers here, I will clarify.
My reaction was sincere. My initial thought the watch to be remarkably clean for its age. I will confess that as I considered it further, doubts emerged that others confirmed. I don't see anything wrong with compliments and respectful dialog on a post. The OP was quite OK with a discussion on the watch.

Thanks for the clarification 😀 Understood

This was the fourth vintage I purchased, the third UG and the first of my gold UG fleet. 34.5mm, early 50’s
12445. Buckle is later of course but looks good with the Bespoke strap. Perfect dress chronograph.
