Personally I don’t think that many are touched up like this one. A more common issue is put-together pieces. I don’t think relumed dials like this happens often. This was just a perfect candidate as the dial was already poorly redone to begin with. Very rare version with a nice case and box and papers made it hard to resist the effort.
The only lesson here is to be aware. Dangerous to start doubting everything. One must just not be naive.
