Double printed dial

[Amadeus12]

Hello, I´ve came across a dial from the 30´s that´s double printed "Swiss Made" and "Fab. Suisse" in the same dial. Is this something that used to be done back in that date for export reasons.
Thanks in advance.

Any pics? Ive seen this on a few watches. Generally in the 40s but it's probably legit

Hi, thanks for answering. I have attached some pictures so you can see the dial.

Sorry I can't post a link to the article yet (as I am new!) but here is some more info from a site called Hodinkee

Quote from the site:

The "Fab. Suisse" was in fact a requirement in France for the purpose of "consumer protection" dating back to 1892. Dials belonging to watches from Jaeger-LeCoultre, Omega, and Longines in the 1930s-1960s have all been seen with the "Fab. Suisse" label.
