Aftermarket dial for sure. The crown is all busted up as is the bezel, case, and bracelet. That watch will need to be serviced and if you send it to an RSC they will insist on replacing the dial.

I would pass.

watch is good i am not sure why others are sayng aftermarket dial, dials are my speciality, this dial is correct in setting for its age, you see the diamonds are quite large and cover the whole setting, athey are set in 4 claws also from what i can see and the settings are correctly faceted, an indication of originality, its a bit banged up but easily fixed and polished back to its glory, regards

Is it normal for the crown on the dial to be placed over the minute markers?
