This watch was given to my father by my mother for his wedding present in 1959. I would have sworn that the dial was original given that I have had it my possession since the early seventies due to their divorce. I never had it redialed and I assumed neither did my father. I posted a picture of the watch early in my membership here and was immediately schooled on the watch's redial.
The thinking is that many watches got redialed as a normal part of a service. Keep in mind that these watches were not collectors items at this point, so the scrutiny of the layman was probably almost nonexistent. If it looks good, great.
