    Hi,
    This nice little 23.7 ST1 with a silver cushion case and black enamel and radium dial just arived today :

    (sorry for the quality of the picture, it is difficult for a bad photographer like me to capture black dials...).
    I find it particularly attarctive and black dials from this period are quite uncommon

    The silver case is 32mm wide. Inside is a 23.7 ST1 :

    Maybe a ref Cl 3577, like in this 1925 catalog :

    @Tire-comedon wow that really is a special watch. I think you might be a little understated in your comment about the dial :D
    Really enjoy your posts and wonderfully focused collection.

    With geographic proximity I've been lucky to see quite a few of his treasures and it is a most splendid collection. :)
