But, I’m trying to decide if the owner took a calculated gamble, as well, or if he knew what he was doing.
If he went the route of having it verified as an authentic dial, he would be sitting on an incredibly valuable piece. It begs the question: why sell it at a possibly much-reduced price unless he either had a hunch, or knew something Eric didn’t.
Just curious as to his mindset.

He could and maybe he did also his own snooping in the internet and ended up with more questions than answers. So he took my offer which is, the safer route and passed on the problem of proving its authenticity to me.

I knew also that it was offered to other collectors here but they don’t want to risk. I just have this gut feel that the watch is legit so i took the gamble. If it bombs out, there is no one to blame but myself. If my hunch is correct i end up with a great watch.
