Need some help from the esteemed experts from the AP section.

Is this a gen dial?

The lume seems too 'flat'.
Sub dials seems odd.
Subdial at bottom, number 3 seems spaced differently.
Many irregularities compared to other rubberclad gen dial.

me no AP expert however it does look a tad bit odd, do you happen to have clearer pictures as these are too grainy to see details.

At the moment only these pictures bro. Watch sent to spa and watchsmith has doubts this is an untouched dial if it's really gen.

hmm unless the previous owner/modder of this piece used a rep dial and modified it to to fit on a LWO? from the pics, the DW placement seems correct as compared to the typical A7750 sec@12 movements.

Yes DW placement is spot on except the details of the dial seems dubious. Does look reworked.

Thanks Tini and Slau,

Genuine dial hands and tachy yes but does the dial seem odd in anyway?

It's gen, but the subdial colors look weird.

Even the bezel, crystal and dw cutout (square) are gen. Haha. So not a franken, lwo283 dw cutout will always be a rectangle.
It's a gen piece, maybe an E series judging from the reflective cyclops, but who knows if previous services affected the dial if you think there's an oddity on the dial. To me on my phone, it's fine.

Oh, my franken RC also has flat lume on the numerals.

100% gen... AP has more than just one supplier and i experienced different dials e.g. on a safari; glossy and matt numbers...
