"Well preserved vintage watch in its Original condition with thick lugs." Really??

This just looks wrong. Something is not original, I think either the the dial or hands have been changed, maybe both. Shouldn't that dial have snowflake hands? And those hands should be on a dial with dot markers?

...you are correct...

...seller says it is a 7016.

...this model WAS available with either square OR mercedes hands.

...HOWEVER, I am inclined to say that someone has done a mix-match job with the dial and hands. AND, most likely relumed and refi'd dial.
