Reply With QuoteVery weird, looks like a rather poorly done redial. Never seen one like that before, quirky for sure.
just came across this, very strange case design! bespoke case maybe? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VERY-RARE...UAAOSwlv9abQN~

Oh boy this looks like a pretty bad one...
The watch is supposed to be solid gold yet the case has areas that show signs of gold plating wearing off (!).
I see a very slight difference in color hue between the case back (which is legit) and the case.
The movement does not sit 100% tight in the case, even though it should.
The dial is redialed and I wouldn't be surprised if it never was a genuine Longines dial.
Crown is not genuine.
Love reading threads like this where the watch is pulled apart with those who have more knowledge than myself, helps us all out in the end by not buying something like this
RUNS STRONG .... wtf does that mean??
I guess they've put it on a dyno and it's pushing out good torque figures?
The dial's enough to put me off.
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
As a matter of interest, where's the plate wearing off?Originally Posted by ordo
It definitely doesn't look like a genunine Longines and the dial looks like a poor Vision-On entry, but I couldn't see any evidence of plate and/or base metal, but I'm no expert, so I'd be interested (genuinely) to know what to look for.
Thanks

There's nothing wrong about that in my view other than the truly mediocre dial refinish.
