URGENTE- Es este Scubapro 450 original?

[rovigo]

Buenas compis
Me ofrecen este 6309-7040 con dial Scubapro 450.
Entiendo que se falsificaron muchos diales y que es dificil encontrar un scubapro.
El dueño me dice que el lo compró en londres y como scubapro.
No tengo ni idea.
Os pongo un par de fotos y me decis porfi

Creo tener que darte la mala noticia de que no es verdadero.

The Scubapro 450 is based on Seikos 6306-7001 model, and were produced in the late 1970’s as part of a marketing contract in conjunction with the Scuba-pro dive equipment company. The 6306 it’s based on is a Japanese domestic market model produced alongside the very similar 6309-7040, the difference being the 6306 has a kanji day wheel, four extra jewels, hacks and has different machining around the crown making the opening slightly larger. The difference between the Scubapro 450 and a stock 6306 is just the printing on the dial. The most obvious difference is the “Scubapro 450” script situated above the “Water 150 Resist” on the dial, but a harder to see change is the dial code went from 700L T to 700J T. It’s generally accepted that the Scubapro versions were produced between 1978 and 1979 but to muddy the waters examples have surfaced with caseback dates of 1976, 77, and 83. Were these actually produced in those years or have the casebacks been changed? The 1983 example is doubly strange because that one post dates 6306’s end of production date of 1981! As ever with vintage Seiko nothing is clear cut – part of the appeal maybe? The example featured below is in outstanding condition in and belongs to a very knowledgable UK collector. It came in for a full movement service so I seized the chance to document it!

No se como se te da el inglés pero básicamente dice que el scubapro se produjo a final de los 70 y que la maquinaria usada es la 6306 no la 6309 que tu enseñas.

De todos modos como mod. no está mal, pero siendo mod no original. y que eso quede claro a su dueño.
Un saludo.

Hay que andarse con mucho ojo porque de estos modelos hay mucho "aftermarket", más bien diría que la gran mayoria lo son.

Yo mismo tengo este que nada tiene que ver con los originales, pero a mí me gusta.
