What year is your double red?

That’s a late mk3. I’d expect to see it on a 1665 white, like a rail dial.

Maybe its the angle but that 10 looks a little wonky in the 3rd pic

To the OP, when you say “original bezel” do you mean “period correct insert” ?
To me it is quite hard to judge with this kind of pictures.
It would help if you could post high res macro.

Kind regards,
