The dial looks like is been redone or could be my screen problem.

Mind if we see some close up of the dial?

Hi Godzillaz...what sharp eyes you have, yes it is redone after confirming with my watch specialist.  As you know, at ebay they have professional photographer and they just know which angle to capture.  Luckily, the rest of it are original.  My bad for not requesting more pictures b4 purchasing. Another lesson learn, eventually from a glance it looks fine until photographed. Tomorrow, will be submitting my brietling chronograph, please let me know any flaws, i am willing to take negative feedback.  Once again, thank you for your alertness.

the dial looks too new for a vintage and the cross hair lines do not line up with 3,6,9...
but the movt looks lovely...

Hi Jos2012...the dial was redone and the person who done it must have cross eye too (heehee)  cause the logo is not centre. The cross hair line also not straight.  Well, no point crying over spilled milk.  Hopefully can get buyer with cross eye to buy (heehee).  Anyway, thanks for the clarification, appreciated !!!

The reason i join this forum is to share our individual collection and also our thoughts.  I am not here to show off or brag about my watch.  If you all have any Favre Leuba watch by all means post it and just be proud of what you have.  I am always willing to listen to all your watch problem and who knows maybe i can assist.  Furthermore there are so many Sifu over here such as Jos2012,Godzillaz, ck77 and many more, who can find the flaws with just a glance.  I know there are a lot of collectors out there who wanted to share but scare of being dwarf by other prestige or expensive watch. By sharing our knowledge, we can overcome mistake such as this Favre Leuba which i purchase without checking for details.  Tomorrow, change of plan, i will be posting RADO instead of Brietling cause i know most collectors must at least got 1 or 2 Rados...Betul Tak ?  Hope to see more posting tomorrow...Cheers !!

Post whatever brand of watch you own. It's not how much it costs that counts. I'm sure all of us here just love to look at watches whether they're cheap or expensive.

Wooo... this Moon Raider looks awesome!!
It's very pity that Favre Leuba no longer exist 
My aunty used to own a rectangular piece, but she gave it to her colleague coz she said manual winding is very 'mah fan' - troublesome  !
