I have seen what are known as the 3, 6, 9 dials from ref 6200, 6538 and 5513.

A 12, 3, 6, 9 dial !!!

Dial is refinished and customized.
Never seen a 3,6,9 with 12 and round minute markers.
Wrong bezel and insert (wrong pearl).
Also when you have such an expensive and rare model, you don't use the wrong spring bars (look at 12 o'clock).

Very suspicious watch!
