Fred, I think it's a whole new reprinted dial, not a refinished, original one. View the subdials...

redial or refinish is normally used for complete reprints - and this one clearly is; no doubt.

I've never really hunted one of these so I'm not super familiar with the details.... But now I'm curious, because to me at first glance, the dial doesn't look that bad. I want to make sure I'm not missing something.
So after squinting at two photos side-by-side:
Twin plane logo too filled in
Chronomatic has no space between Chrono and matic
Sub Dials have no indent (perhaps biggest giveaway?)
Font slightly wrong and text a bit too silver?
What else am I missing?
Pretty scary actually, looks pretty close...

Different G's in Breitling and Geneve, missing triangles in the second circle 1:10, 1:20, etc. Compare the MPH at 12. a CHRONOMATIC sign without - had only the very first 1806-dials...
