Hello Everyone,

I really like this watch, should I be concerned aboutthe lack of a model reference number on the caseback?

Any tips much appreciated.

very unsure about the dial, I will doublecheck on a larger screen.

edit: dial is refinished, and not too well. lume dots missing from the batons & there was no white/white Gen.1 ref. 810; unicolor was only silver/silver, dial should look like this:

I am also very doubtful about the serial number - looks like an amateur engraving job.
