Something wrong with this MF?

Hello all, i have been offered this meters first in exchange for my 1986 16760 COKE GMT MASTER II.

I dont know if it worths the trade.

Dont know if there is something wrong with the sub, noticed the crown, as far as i know, it is not triple lock for the original model, am i right?

Some people can recognize the "5513" inscription, is the correct font, is the case correct?

Bezel is correct?


Has it have been relumed?

Hands are ok?

Year match the serial?

Coming with BOX, CERTIFICATE, PAPERS AND EVERYTHING FROM 1963.

Here are the pictures.

Serial 1587xxx

dial is genuine but re-lumed
hands are fake
case is over polished
insert is a genuine long 5, but the pearl is for a sapphire insert

Looks like someone put a pretty crappy franken together.

What he said ^^^

Not to mention that horrible lume job looks to have mold on it. Possible moisture problem which can mean a poor condition movement.

Shafts look thin. Too much point in hour hand.

I have my doubts about the case itself. Take a look at the engraved "R".

Once you've seen hundreds of genuine hands, you can spot a fake instantly. It also helps to devote some time looking at all the replicas coming out of china.

Shame .... Agree with the above comments. 'Nipple dial' prototype??!

Probably worth saying that the 16760 seems really rare... Hardly any about in the UK
