Tudor Lollipop

Hi everyone, came across this watch for sale. Owner claims original (1968 right? for the lollipop version). But the hr hand is missing the Merc sign and the tritium (I suppose) looks sloppy. Am I missing something? Were these configured with plain hr hands?
Does it look ok otherwise?

You have to be very careful with these, more than one expert has told me to make sure you have zero doubts about one before buying, they are very copied out of Asia and that one just does not look right....

There are 2 subs referred to as lollipop, the older one has a big round marker on the second hand and the regular mercedes hour, the latter has the hour hand as pictured here.

I have owned one of these. The hour hand is correct, if the reference is right (which should be 76100).Watch is from the 80's. The older version of the lolipop is from late 60's early 70's.

From what I see in the foto, it looks good, but more fotos can never hurt.
