is it all original or reprinted ?

It looks like a reprint or restored dial. But nethertheless it's a beautiful piece.

Reprint? Do you just guess or can demonstrate ? IMHO it just looks like a very good condition original dial

Yeah, I see nothing there to suggest a redial. Would like to see a better shot of the outer sliderule, that may not be original, but the rest looks OK to me.

Looks ok to me, but the croatian waves and dubrovnik wines may play tricks on my eyes

looks a bit too smooth to me, the 2 slightly too thick - so not totally sure.

I had another look, i have mo comparison at hand atm but is the box around the 10 always off center like with this one (on the silderule ring ?)

color on the sliderule might be off too, here's an example:

It was the box that made me slightly dubious about the outer ring, but not the best photos to tell.

The dial seems OK to me but the sliderule is definitely reprinted. Maybe only the red box was added, but reprinted. The line/stroke below the boxed 10 has to be red, not black. The alignment in the box is not correct.

I see absolutely no reason to doubt either the dial itself or the sliderule, but having said that I'll leave a gap open for the lume on the dial, but only a full size picture in high resolution can tell us.

Sliderules are obviously easier to redo to a perfect match, but IMO it's correct.

Here I found the original offer, 500,-€ cheaper. The company Chronext seems to download their watches from other websites

or not

No big deal, but the red box at the slide rule does not match to the box from the dial. The color is different and also the proportions are different. Also the stroke under the box seems to be black and not red.

My one:

the "red box" on the dial is orange, like it should be for 18k & GP. sliderule seems a slightly botched refinishing attempt, color & shape are off, but the black stroke is there on the orginal sliderule too:
