Yes, some of the indices looks like permanent-marker-freestyle-art and the hand of the hour register looks overpainted as well. I didn't notice the Carrera-Text. You think it's a bit too shiny and bold?

Also I'm not sure about the lume of the hour and minute hands. Overall for me it's not 100% coherent. At least the serial 53XXX should be one of the first, right? ;)
