information dior chiffre rouge a03

hey there

I recently purchased a dior watch off ebay, which was certified authentic. It's a dior chiffre rouge A03.

I first have some trouble finding an owner manual online and was wondering if someone could help me figure out how to change the time on it.

Second I have carefully inspected the watch and I am attaching to this message two pictures: the one received and a stock photo from the dior website.

There are two differences, namely the shape of the time marks (round v rectangular on mine) and the position of the "swiss made" at the bottom of the dial (over versus on the marks).

Do you think this is enough to conclude it is not original and counterfeit? Or is it possible there were such variations amongst various "batches" of the dior watches?

Thank you!

I'm certainly no expert on these models or manufacturer. However, from a quick search, there does appear to be this model with both styles of minute markers present!!!

As for the setting of this watch. I can only assume like most automatics, you unscrew the crown and pull out to different positions for winding and adjusting the time....

Best of luck!
