I'll take a noob shot at it:

Unsigned crown.

Not sure why the numbers on the dial are covered...?

OK, here we go.

Says it is redialed, yet they used the wrong die for the redial as there is not date on this watch.
The dial for this watch goes under the case ring that has the triangular hour markers.
This dial has its own hour markers on it. What company would use hour markers twice?

Wrong dial for this watch, and when redialed, the redialer redid it with the wrong model for this watch. BTW, there is an Ad describing the manual and automatic version of the Glorious, a model VERY popular for about 20 years, and still sought by collectors today.

Then there is the condition, the crown, yada, yada, yada.
