Gahhh, I missed bidding on this by about 2 seconds. I think whomever snagged it got a great deal. For my own continuing education, is there anything I should be concerned about had I had time to put in a proper bid? Thanks!

Mmmm...looks like a nice one, but the lack of T around the Swiss Made in a tritium dial...dont know....The plating seems to be wearing off the bracelet....Not sure. I would have passed.

 

Don't think the crown's correct.

 

I don't think you've missed a particularly great deal, but whoever snapped it up has no need to feel about his purchase either

Personally, I wouldn't have pulled the trigger, even though the bracelet is a nice touch.

 

Without T is correct. There's no Tritium on this dial.

 

What are the dots by the minute markers and the whitish stuff on the hands?. Luminova?. Was it relumed later?

 

This dial doesn't appear to have been relumed. It just has the plain phosphor without the radioactive energy ingredient, most likely made of some zinc sulfide compound. Luminova/super-luminova was invented much later in the 1990s.
