New member with a question :)

A pleasant day to all! I'm Max! A long time collector and lover of horology!

I would like to consult you guys about this Speedmaster I was offered recently for a good price. There seems to be fading in the dial from 11 o clock to 2 o clock and a little at 3 o clock. Based on this, would you say this wasn't taken cared of?

I really like this watch and would like to ask what would be the remedy to this if I take it to the service center? Re-dial? Paint? Or should I just leave it? 😀

Everything else works great.

I would appreciate the help! Thanks in advance!

Cheers!

Max

Hello Max and welcome.
One fo many possibilities is that the movement is not fitted correctly and move a little so the dial rubs the edges of the case.
You have several choices :
-change the dial
- try to paint it on the edges knowing that the result may be not terrible.

Yes, you can try to paint the edges, but from my experience (I had a similar problem) every time you will look to the watch you will check the edges..😀
