Vintage Tudor Ranger: All Parts Original?

I don't think so
Apparently, the red 'Ranger' word gave it away. There has never been a Ranger word in red for this model, only the refurbished dial has it.
Getting an original vintage Ranger is challenging, lots of recon dials out there, esp in red fonts.
Second giveaway sign is the Minute hand. Original Ranger Minute hand is straight and flushed all the way. Some aftermarket minute hands have slightly 'flared' hands, meaning it taperes out slightly wider near the minute hand edge.
An original Ranger commands more than 1k as well, if you can manage to find one
