Oponion on dial needed

Hello guys,

I have a possible buy ahead of me, I’m just in a little doubt about the dial on this 6422.

What do you guys think? Is it normal that there’s no “swiss” or any other similar text at 6 o clock?

Appreciate all help.

Thanks, yes I’m quite concerned about the “oyster” and “precision” being on the upper part of the dial and now lower text at all.

I’m really looking fwd to others’ opinion as well.

No swiss under 6, maybe refinished.

Excellent teamwork and a close call averted.

OP: Did the listing for the watch you shared have any description of the dial having been refinished?

The listing is here, it doesn’t say the dial is refinished.

Those hands don't look correct either. I'd expect something that looks more like this example,
