For the dial was there an option between lume dial and non lume or that dependes on the year?

Good evening
I am trying to see if I can make the watch original.
I will start looking for parts
Is this a good dial?
The bezel looks it is missing something

No dial is bad redial. Would really suggest you rethink the idea of buying a new case, dial, hands, in hopes of making this watch original. Understand fully the sentimental value so recommend you wear it proudly as such!

Yep this is correct. An early one. Also wrong plexi (very minor). Looks nice!

chrono sweep is incorrect, the lume hands are from a Premier it seems, but could be a decent fit; the baton look fine
