Not exactly a redial but same idea....misspelled at the factory, sure sure

http://m.ebay.com/itm/Omega-Seamaster-Chronograph-Misprint-Error-/172063758440?nav=SEARCH

On a swiss ebay-like site, a guy is selling a 'misspelled' seemaster 'which makes it very rare!' ;-)

https://www.ricardo.ch/kaufen/uhren...utm_medium=bannertextlink&utm_campaign=ffl_de

Edit:
Ps: and the starting bid is at 2.5k $. A real bargain馃榾馃槈

Oh and I almost forgot to mention his nickname. 'Gaggi' means 'poop' ins swiss german 馃榿馃槜

Pps: click on 'Beschreibung' to read the english description

Never accuse the case of being over-polished...

Wow that is 2 Seemasters posted recently. I guess that makes them a little less rare than they say. $2.5k is a little better than the other one's price. http://www.ebay.com/itm/172076185639?redirect=mobile

The current owner/seller, "can't believe how impeccable this 1940s 18kt Gold Longines Chrono is," and neither can I. 馃槖
At least this eBay seller was not so naive (or conniving): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Longines-13ZN-chronograph-mens-wristwatch-18K-solid-gold-case-37-5-mm-/221983099503?nma=true&si=abMx4KWuMXtRzz1Hl1EgI%2B6VUwY%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

The same seller describes this one as a, "Rare Spectacular Vintage Ulysse Nardin". It certainly is striking.

On the subject of fonts, I wondered if "SWISS MADE" here is in correct position.

Secondly, is there some guideline on spelling of Chronometre vs. Chronometer?

A bigger problem on this one is the lop-sided cross hair. It is all the way up against the Omega logo. Danger

The font looks kind of right. Could this be a "converted" dome dial with a cross hair added?

How about this one on ebay? It's already sold for over 700 Euros.

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Omega-chronograph-320-/252266080484

For me, it looks like, as if

- the dial is a self painted fantasy style
- the case -unidentified- could have been something like 168.029 before it was re-shaped
- the movement was fitted inside the case with some tin stripes, there are no clamps
- the reference 2493-4 has nothing to do, with any part of this "watch"...

700 Euro for a 320 movement, of which you know nothing?
