A WUSOF sale thread provided the following example of an "original dial" that looks quite cringeworthy to my eyes:

It's hard to tell, because of the position of the minute hand, if this passes the MOY test.

Wow. I don't know what's more impressive. The script, the pimped bezel, or the inch-thick spray painting that has left such fine definition on the pie pan edges... ?

It's unfair to list this as a redial, but I didn't know where else to put it. It did have very nice, very very early 50s (maybe late 40s?) fonts and dauphine hands. Unusual coffin shaped markers. The case looks a little small by today's tastes.

And then we have the seller's tragic tale:

This was a very nice watch until it went through the washer. It will run if shaken. It has a little mildew on the dial. See photos. I have not had it open so don't know what condition the movement is in.
