1655 Needs Quick Action

Despite the blurry pics, the dial on this looks fake to me. The "T Swiss T" is wrong--the "T"'s are in the wrong position relative to the minute markers and the style of coronet is incorrect for a "T Swiss T" dial.

The 24 hour orange hand also appears fake as it is too short.

Only 15 hours left in the auction and many bids. I suspect the lure of box and papers has many overlooking the details (the story about the punched papers sounds fishy too)

The dial is indeed wrong.
