    At least the seller states that it has a bad redial and needs a full service.

    This is a Tudor I listed on ebay a couple years ago, and I had it confirmed with my watchmaker that it was genuine. I didn't notice the redial until I took the pictures, however, especially the fact that the movement of the watch is SELF WINGDING!

    Oops, looks like a paper dial and the hourmarkers are 'touched-up' (or 'down') with a marker....
    Is the movement OK?

    Here's one that just gave me a chuckle. It's actually FS on TZ (okay, he said the dial was refinished, but still! And that moon...::facepalm1::)

    Tudor did actually produce a genuine roman-arabic dial for their date and date-day models, at least until 10 years ago.

    Here is one I bought in Lugano in 2004 (now owned by a friend, so I get to see it often).

    Redial Franken 14700. I acquired it in a lot of Omega parts watches and it is time to get rid if it.

    Oops, we missed the doggone bullseye! Alex is flogging this turkeyPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network with "DIAL: ORIGINAL OMEGA TWO TONE OLD REFINISHED, EXCELLENT" Of course, "All items are 100% authentic, We dont sell replicas or fakes, money back guarantee "

    All is all, a shockingly bad listing.
