Looks strange to me. Is that a real one?

Pretty early 769 case but no telling what's inside. The dial has been heavily altered (redone) which would lead one to believe it's not original. The gold raised numbers would be a little unusual. Lumed hands should be on a lumed dial so they're wrong and the wrong shape anyway. I'm thinking the dial is completely wrong since it doesn't appear to fit well inside the outer rotating bezel. Interesting story from the seller. :lol:

Pretty horrible Franken with a fake dial. Bezel, hands wrong. Avoid at all costs.
