Nope... until the late 70's. Have a look here : http://www.netgrafik.ch/sekonda_history.htm and there : http://forums.watchuseek.com/f10/sekonda-brand-used-two-companies-649514.html A lot of chinese redial out there I believe mine to be original though, creamy patina and rusty corrosion seem authentic. The only non original details are the red hands painted that way on previous owner request by his watchmaker Fun to wear anyway
Giving this one a break from the dark confines of the vault. 1989, 18-karat rose gold for the European market.
Sorry to inform you but this dial is not an original one! Simple the original watches have only Cyrillic alphabet letters. [emoji53] Anyway a nice watch!

I typically like more vintage chromos, but could not resist this Oris Artelier with a lovely art deco feel and tuxedo dial.
