Hi, I have a Memovox wrist alarm with a cal814 serial 1095973 (I think from about 1954). 10k gold filled. The crowns are not original for sure: does someone have originals?
I suspect the dial has been refinished as well: see pictures. Does someone have any idea if there has been a version resembling this one?

It is refinished and it does not look like a pattern of an original dial, if that is your question.
