    Interesting dial - the Batman villain Two-Face came to mind. Does it date from the 70's? And it's so funky it can't be a redial right?

    I've seen US market LeCoultre versions of this watch before. Looks original to me.

    A face only a mother could love, though.

    Strange for sure. Kinda surprising that JLC would put out something like that.

    The hour markers look a little like the ones on the JLC Club line that they put out during the quartz crisis. Very retro, but not in a good way IMO

    It's a mid 60's to late 70's watch for sure.

    I like the quirky look of this one. :) Quite uncommon no doubt.
