Early 1601 questions

537,XXX with early bezel and hands. The dial markers look to be early but it's marked T swiss T , maybe replaced ? And I'm not 100% sure it hasn't been refinished ? I don't plan on doing anything with it except wearing it. I love these older models with the early features, bezel, hands. And it's turning purple.

Thanks Chris

That 6 o'clock marker does not look centered. Appears tampered with.

Could you also check with UV, possibly the markers will light up.

Enjoy the watch.

Yes, it does not look centered in a couple phots but looks right in others. Who knows ?? Anyhow the lume lights up green for a split second then fades. Still cant find a DJ with these markers
