    Why does the minute hand extend past the minute track? Does the minute hand have something to do with the calculation of distance?

    Looks good, what's the asking price?

    I am personally leery of these enamel dials if they're already showing hairline cracks or chips.

    These wire lugged 13.33's are not particularly desirable yet. However, the 13.33 is a masterpiece. As far as wristwatch chronographs go, few are as elegant, well finished, and complex. Assuming that the internals are as clean as the exterior, the price is not unreasonable.

    Well I own it now. Strap will go into the US under separate shipment. Every time I swear I'm stopping another temptation emerges. After falling in love with this reference whilst reading a Longines history, I never imagined the OF network would present me with the opportunity to own one. Pretty psyched. Thanks again. I am assured dial and case in excellent condition. Dial blemish is very hard to see. As I've bought from this source on four previous occasions, I trust him.
