Hello every one. I am looking at a nice looking Bulova everything is authentic but the dial is changed to a red colour.Is this okey or is the watch and the value off the watch ruined. The dial is professionally restored the change is the colour change to a fire red one.
What do you think????
Would depend on which model.
Think of it as changing the colour of a Car:
If a rare or exotic Car has non original colour paint then there would be an adjustment in value for the change.
A 1993 Buick grocery getter not so, fresh paint no matter the colour may even increase its value.
It's really a matter of personal opinion, but to most collectors, a non-original dial refinish, especially in a colour never offered by the company is a no-no. It all depends what you are looking for, it's kind of like a car analogy I often use, either you like the original model T or a hot rodded version with flames painted on the side.
