"1945" 6610 Explorer with atrocious lume on Tourneau

https://www.tourneau.com/watches/pre...-VRX32102.html

Obviously the year is wrong, but also I didn't think 6610's ever had white text. And that lume...is this just an atrocious redial? Or worse?

A lot of things wrong with that, and the most important thing is Turdneau didn't disclose it's a redial and lists it as "very good" condition.....

It's also been mercilessly polished.

Look at the crown. I love when you click the 5th pic and it states "expert restoration" and expert cleaning and polishing. Whether it was their watchmaker (which i doubt) or not. Tourneau should have never listed this piece under the very good condition rating.
