Q's regarding Monaco 90's Re-issue dial...

Hi All,

came across this 'vintage' styled Monaco dial on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330493375589&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en#ht_500wt_922

Unable to find much answers, this would be the best place to turn to. So my questions would be:
- is this a genuine TAG Heuer dial?
- the '12' hour marker above the Monaco/Shield is missing it's red stripe (rather unusual IMO), but would this be correct?
- as this is being sold as a damaged item, how easy would flaw on the dial be to mask?

Hoping someone would have some answers - wouldn't mind making a 'customised' one off as I may be in possession of a re-issue that is in need of TLC. Any help would be appreciated!
