Question on this vintage constellation

I came across this vintage omega which was restored.
However i haven't come across one with arrow markers on this dial.
Does anybody know whether this is properly restored and looks correct?

There are a lot of different Constellation dial variations. Arrow head markers are not unusual.
Your photo is not very clear.
Something just looked wrong on this dial to me. I googled Omega Constellation arrowhead.
If you look at all the dials you will see the minute markers on the interior of the dial and not the exterior.
So, I would say that the dial has been redone. Incorrectly.
And the arrowhead hand, does not look correct either.
Granted I still find new variations I have not seen before after 25 years, but those 2 items just don.t look kosher to me.

Thanks milgauss88
That was what I spotted different. I have seen arrowheads with outer minute markers on seamaster only and constellation with outer markers but not with arrowheads and printed calendar on the dial but not this before
