Re: original silver dial of the 15630 heuer

: Hello,

: Kind regards,

thank you Manuel for your help.
yes the scan is a bad quality because i took it from the web site of the seller.
I gave the watch back to the seller to have an expert (heuer?) advice.
i will do better scans when i will get the watch back.
the hands are service because the lume is too small.
There is no dashes on each side of swiss and applied indexes are from the first type for a 15630 case, and the dial is incompletely lumed because the orange indexes are absent (you can see it at 3 6 9 on the scan).
i think weird that the watch could have left the factory without orange dashes on every hours of the dial.
Could it be a service relumed dial ?
best regards
bernard
