    Oooooo, a 12.68Z Stop Seconds! ::love:: I think you scored in a big way. Dial looks original to me too. I'll check my reference material tonight for more data to see what I have on that case style, but it looks like a 40's model.

    Lucky man, that's a real beaut. Ive two 12.68z stops, but would kill for that one.
    Congrats.
    im guessing that's 37mm or so, from 1945/6.
