ceocorona Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 ouch... thats uh, going to need some work on the "finish"...
DC109 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 Forget the color for a second--what's wrong with the coronet? Looks like it's listing to the right. I'd say this guy is trying to pass a rep dial as a "refinished" gen.
1680 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 What are you guys moaning about?? Never heard of the ultra-long dial? It's a rare version, the small brother of the maxi dial.
denimhead Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 I think that's the funniest dial I've seen in ages, I love the way no ones commented on it. But of course its Gen and on a 'Gen only' forum Maybe someone should email him with the ingod website details! Forget the color for a second--what's wrong with the coronet? Looks like it's listing to the right. I'd say this guy is trying to pass a rep dial as a "refinished" gen. Its not as good as a rep dial
1680 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 Guys, forget about that term "refinished dial". NDT, Minh etc. sell "refinished" dials, but they are simple fakes. Is it really that hard to fake the Singer, Beyeler or Stern stampings, no not really. And even if it was a genuine dial in the first place, if the old paint was removed and it's reprinted, what is left? Just a silly piece of genuine (Rolex/Singer/Stern)brass. just my 2 cents 1
SSTEEL Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 That wonky crown is really bizarre Sure is terrible.
modelizer Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 Seriously? That crown is pure comedy - even on Canal Street!
cc33 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 Wow, terrible! But to be fair he is basically selling it with no dial at that price, that's why nobody said anything. Everything else is good and at a good price so someone can just toss that dial and plop in a gen.
danielv2000 Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Posted July 26, 2013 I agree the price is not bad assuming all else is original but if the dial has been this badly refinished, then maybe it's a complete Franken and at that price, it's too high for a Franken.

droptopman Posted June 8, 2015 Report Posted June 8, 2015 Good lordy.....maybe it is the ultra rare white Bart Simpson after he has been hit in the head. Case looks over-polished as well. Still not a terrible deal if the movement is solid and everything else is original.
