Is this 1675 insert "fishy"?
This watch is for sale and its insert has the bottom O from the eight intersecting the upper O.
I mean, this is not a round or squashed top part of the 8, in reality it is interrupted. Thank you Experts for chiming in! Stay safe, Filipe |

Looking for a needle in a haystack..
Can you post a link to the sale and/or the whole insert. This is what happens when we look at watches with microscopes.. |

No, the hooked 2's are more pronounced. The 8 in the 1st pic looks weird.

Your 2nd and 3rd photos almost look like they came from two different watches. Macros from different angles make them seem different.
Looks like an early60s insert seen here: https://gmtmaster1675.com/the-bezel/#jp-carousel-4401 (or an attempt to mimic one). Most aftermarket inserts look more symmetrical. Agree that the whole watch photo without image manipulation would help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Insert looks good - not so good for the 24-hour hand.
