Something about the dial and sliderule surely doesn't look right

Anything I say you need to take with a degree of caution,as I'm still learning, but the slide rule does not look original. If you look at the divisions, for example, between 20 and 21. There should be a bolder hard stop at each number and finer gradations between. The smaller markers, say between 30 and 35, should be at the bottom of the sliderules and touch the black dial. I've attached a photo of what I think it should look like,

Sweep hand is wrong too.
