Is this Tudor dial original?

Is this dial original? I haven't seen this dial design before.

Moving this out of vintage, as it's a newer, luminova dial. I guess early 2000s. Tudor did some pretty funky stuff around then.

Adam with the Tudor knowledge.

That is indeed a funky dial but I kinda like it...

Before Adam added proof ( ) I would say yes as it has some proper Tudor fonts, funkyness aside ;)

Thanks Neil. I don't know that I would rush out to find one, but I like the way that the "Rotor Self-Winding" is offset like that, kind of reflecting and suggesting the movement of the rotor.
