That's the rarer steel case version. It looks okay to me with the original dust cover and the round shaped DH markings. But I am not sure about the crown.

many people told that the crown is probl not correct, i was wondering about the dial that seems so good, can it be so clear polished from the radium ?

The overall condition of the watch is nice. In the close up perspective you can see traces of use and humidity on the dial. It is definetely original.
I will make some pics of my zenith to compare the watches.

I knew this is the better forum to ask napoleone2 . At Uhrforum you will find all kind of "Experts" and guys who wanna "help".
for context:
"This watch seems to be in a very bad condition. Why is no lume on the hour hand? Looks like someone opened the watch sometime ago... "

The fair value is hard to determinate. You should compare the offer to other sales in auction houses and on eBay (back research function). To my eyes the price in relation to the condition is in the upper fair range.

All the zenith dh i see for sale are at least 1.000 euro and more and some times in worst conditions. i might consider that if the 90% is original i could be happy to buy it.

Don' t look at offers, look at realised prices. If you look at offers only, everthing is hardly overpriced. 450 € is to my eyes in the "okay" range....

...case, dial, hands, crown are looking good. The movement has replaced parts and the click of the ratchet wheel is blued - replacement?

Walter... Looks like waste of time, no "please" or "thank you" here, there are some easy rules for communication especially if you want something...
Cheers Dirk

it so impressive to me how people with experience can identify such details. I would have never see the replaced parts from the movement (except maybe just for the blued ratchet weel). Thank you very much for your advices. Now im totally frustrated but thats part of the game i suppose. In this case the seller wanted at least 600 so i think ill keep on searching and study. these watches are difficoult but so much fascinating for their history to me. I know i went on the right forum to have some help. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
