    Pulled the trigger on this yesterday. Impulse buy. 565 movement. 26mil serial.

    Quick date set auto with wonderful dial. What do fellow forum members think? Is it all ok? [​IMG][​IMG]
    It's a little small but lovely.

    I am struggling to capture how lovely this dial is. Matt black a little faded with rose gold markers and hands. Gorgeous.

    Well I'm no expert here but if the dial is original it really sets the gold off and it's good looking.

    Looks like a redial with the wrong hands. Sorry

    Blast. So not original. Shame. It's still looks lovely and vintage though and I didn't pay a lot for it so will keep and wear it. Also keeps excellent time!

    Still looks great and if it runs good you got a winner. Don't sweat it.
