Boy, now I'm getting confused. I ask the question if this Monaco 1533b dial was original or a re-dial and the verdict came back as a re-dial. I have since emailed the seller, a regular OTD contributor, and he asures me it is original and he doesn't mind taking it back as he wants to put it on hs next Monaco. I have read with interest the replies I got the other day but just want to be doubley sure you all reckon it's a re-dial before I send it back. Out of interest, where or who has a genuine, used but good condition or NOS 1533b dial as a comparison, and how much is one to buy if one is out there? My watch is beautiful but has a small piece of paint missing on the dial. Once again, many thanks chaps. David
