Hard to tell for sure, but sure looks like an original red dial to me.

The first Series of Red Submariner produced from 1969 had the depth rating written as 200m/660ft.Changed around 73 to the 660ft/200m so watch is 1973 onward dial looks fine to me,but hard so say for 100% from picture.Serial check with Rolex to be 100% sure.

No flat 'S' so it must be genuine, since all fake Subs have a flat 'S'.
