Hello to the forum.
Its a nice vintage 18038 I assume?
T SWISS T was on most of the true "vintage" stonedials, seen on the 4 and five digit models. Later versions also could show SWISS or SWISS MADE.
Here is a great link to learn a lot about this dials.
The writing might be looking "silverish" due to the imagebox used by the seller. I wouldnt worry about it. The text font and setting is also correct for a T SWISS T 18038 Lapis dial. As you can see, its partially fading / shading. Thats normal for stonedials. Also common on others as the onyx and tigereye.
The secondhand or the minute/hour hand have a different color and condition, so I assume they might have been changed at some point.
The hands are not the same as basic dials. Stone dial handsets are by far taller in their holes. I assume 2x sized than a basic set, so its very difficult to find some.
Stone dial watches exist with lumeless hands (as in your case) and with lume hands. All factory spec.
In the time of first sale, no one even expected which hype will come. The lapis is not quite a rare version but a nice looking one with the unique blue color and shadows.
Seems to be a good dial, show a bit more... Case condition, bracelet condition, serial range / year.
