·So this one seems better than the last one I posted a couple of weeks ago but some obvious (though I think perhaps minor) problems exist with this too.
First the image (sorry, I've cropped it to remove reference to the seller's site in case I seriously pursue this...).
Only 2 pictures are available, nothing about movement, etc., or crown (which I assume, from what I can see, is unsigned as it should be for this era).
Front/Dial:
Back/Case:
What's right:
1 - Dial seems original with coat tail 6/9 and - between Tri-Compax (did I get that right?)
2 - Not sure however about the red Telemetre scale on the outside rim of the dial....not seen that before on tihs model (but it might exist....).
3 - Red hand for date.
4 - Other subdials are/seem correct.
5 - Crown, pushers etc. seem fine.
6 - Assume it's a 481 movement (no way to tell without asking for case back pics.
What's not right:
1 - Hour/Minute hands are incorrect (should be lumed right?)
2 - Moon has no face (since this is dated to the 40's it should...)
3 - Telemetre marking is questionable?
4 - Price (nearly 10k USD....)
Let's hear your thoughts (as always, click to see higher resolution).
