Looks a bit off to me. The sub dials and the look (arrow is on the right versus the left). Could it be a early version?

Glad to hear it's real. Especially with the sellers feedback.

For self edification purposes, did they place the arrow on the 3 O'clock sub dial versus the 9 O'clock on the earlier versions?

Thanks for the knowledge...

Ahhhh. I see what you're talking about now. I thought you were referring to the arrow on the slide rule. Not sure why the subdial hands are switched. It's not a Speed where they should be and AFAIK they haven't changed them. Perhaps swapped in servicing. I still think it's real.

I've seen several legitimate watches with swapped subdial hands - assembly or servicing issue.
