Thoughts on this DJ (1601)

Evening all,

I'm considering buying this 1601 DJ, and had a couple of questions.
Is the dial correct for a 5mil series 1601? It appears that they had originally come with a couple of different types of markers on stick dials. It does not appear to have any lume on the hour markers, yet has lume on the hands which appears to be very dark.
Is the bracelet authentic and correct for a 5mil series 1601? I don't ever recall seeing one with the coronet stamped to the right of the model #. Then again I'm not a bracelet pro, therefore I ask the question.

Your feedback is appreciated

I really dislike the 62510h band. I doubt it's authenticity. The dial normally has a small amount of luminous on top of each baton. This one doesn't. This is an 1800 watch in value when legit and running well. I would walk. You can do better

I also don't like the crown. Harry
