What do you think about this one? Described as NOS but imho it is refinished . No "SWISS MADE" or "FAB. SUISSE" at the bottom and fat printing .

Does not look right to me either. It looks way too good and that is usually a bad sign on such on old dial. Agree with the missing lettering, missing usually because it is so hard to get the smaller lettering correct.

Definite redial, and not a very good one - look how bad the edges are, especially 11, 12 and 1.

Yes, on fresh eyes that is definitely freshly made and not well.
