    I think Dennis just commented on this in another thread, lugs very polished.

    Yep, no facets left at all. The medallion is nice and the dial looks okay after a cursory glance. Still, not one a collector would "go Ashley" for. It's a later model too - collectors like the earlier versions with the scalloped crowns, although I think that is the correct crown for the post 1962 models.

    This 1962 catalog is an interesting reference. In 1962 the "di lusso" models (like the one posted here) no longer have scalloped crowns, but other Conquests retain them.
