This watch is supposed to be original and the serial is 1.8 Mil. I have compared the pics from Orchi's thread and think the dial is the correct MK.1 for the watch.

Do the experts agree and does everything look okay? What about the GMT hand as the red paint seems a little short?

JustinK, I'm no expert. However I agree the 24 hour hand appears "short" and
possibly repainted red? The dial to my untrained eyes looks okay.

Best,

Dial is correct, but need more pictures. What's up with the font on the insert, is that from the exposure of a shaky camera? I've seen where the red is chipping from the GMT hand before, but could also be aftermarket issue. Not crazy about the hands being off color and not matching the plots. Cant tell anything about the case without more images.

correct dial for that serial number. insert is ok. hands looks different patina, but it may occur. nothing wrong in my opinion.

Weird effect on the insert at 2 & 4 ?

Dial looks good on quick inspection
