Not sure but is anyone else seeing "Superlative Chronometer", "Oyster Perpetual" and "Officially" scripts look uneven? The lume for sure looks washed out. A redone dial or just my eyes playing tricks?

Looks closest to a MK2 (pics in 2nd row from top) though the lume looks strange. Dial still doesn't look convincing for some reason(relume?) though the fonts seem to match to pics below.

Edit: Now the case looks more strange esp along the chamfers, lugs and inside of the crown guards(esp the crude metal finish on the inside of the left lug and centre), I give up on pin pointing what's wrong for sure, help Jed?:)
