Rolex Explorer 6150 1958. Does this look legit

I have the opportunity to snap up this 6150.

Just wanted to get some expert insight on whether the dial looks correct for its age (1958). Unfortunately this is the only pic I have.

What kind of prices do these sell for. There aren't many on say chrono24 to be able to guage market prices.

Thanks in advance

A word of advice, try to upload a picture that is at a minimum, in focus!

If you read the post it clearly states that this is the only pic I have.

Lousy photo, but certainly appears to be a repainted dial and replaced hands.

Other than that awful pic somewhat showing an obvious redial..Coming from Mr. Wood, his advice is the only bit of advice I'd need to read to know that this is obviously a hard pass

There is also no such thing as a 1958 6150. The 6150 was produced alongside the 6350 in 1953-1954, but replaced by the 6610 by 1955.
