The photo is not very good, but I tend to say re-dial, since the minute markers look very uneven. For example, look at the uneven spacing of the minute markers adjacent (on each side) to the 5, 6, and 10 o'clock applied markers. It is a horrendous re-lume at the very least.Lol @kazrich !
@badbackdan is it a redial, or just a release to Indian market? I know Enicar was popular in China... but not anywhere else enough to warrant limited releases

Oh I see that now. Good eye as always. I also noticed the writing in the bottom (SWISS MADE??) is covered by the hour markers and I was not sure if that was an indication of a redial. Here is another piece that has hour markers covering the writing as well.The photo is not very good, but I tend to say re-dial, since the minute markers look very uneven.

I think that one has "SWISS" on the left of the 6 o'clock marker and "MADE" on the right, but there is damage, so you only see "SS" on the left and "MAD" on the right.Oh I see that now.

With both pieces being covered, I didn’t know if it was common practice with Enicar in some of its pieces back then, or that this seller just happens to have both watches cross some of the rules against proper redialing! Much of the similar watches I saw usually have SWISS MADE visible, with the hour marker in between both words.

yeah a watchmaker or jeweller can bend back and refoldHi,
I have a Sherpa Super-Jet with the original Enicar beads-of-rice bracelet. I need to shorten the bracelet a bit by removing some links, but don't see any of the traditional pins or markings for removable pins on the back side. Can anyone give me some tips on removing some links from these bracelets? It looks as if the only option is to (gently) bend open one row of the "rice bead" loops from the back, but wanted to check with you experienced folks before I try that. Thanks very much.
