    Hi,

    I guess some of you begin to get familiar with my interest in the 26.5SOB and 23.4SC watches.
    Here is the last 23.4 SC I bought :

    The dial is quite damaged and patinated, the back is also damaged. I would probably not have bought it if it wasn't a rather uncommon large diameter. Indeed, with its 37mm diameter, it is the largest 23.4SC
    I've ever seen.

    It's a reference CK 859, I date it from around 1937. Here it is in the 1940 general catalog :

    I also have a 26.5 SOB with the same case, same big size here they are, side by side :

    I have a 26.5 also same size like yours. Would you please look it up in your catalogs to find its reference for me. Thanks a lot
