Hello to everyone. First of all I'd like tou congrats to you for your very beautifull and usefull forum. I live in Italy near Venice. I'd like to ask you if my new memovoc cal. 825 is it all original ot it has a repainted dial. I have some doubts because i see that there is not the sign "t swiss made t" I attach some photos of it. Thank you very very much for you kindness. Ciao Lu [IMG]http://i37.tinypic.com/2m60aow.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i37.tinypic.com/a2rd1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i35.tinypic.com/34oc0h0.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/2hn2emd.jpg[/IMG] |

Repainted I would say. The quality of the work is not bad at all, but the problem is that the dials which have these 'black index' have an inner circle with bar luminous markers('railway' alarm chapter), and not the more classic 'luminous dots' with no circle. And also, this style of dial goes with batons hands, not the Dauphine hands. It seems that someone did a good job at repainting this dial, unfortunately using the mask of the slightly different earlier version. Watch is still good looking, but not exactly as it should be. See an example of how this dial should look like:
