    Love these hands...
    Could not find further information. Transformed ranchero? Would you leave dial as it is?
    Cheers

    Humm. I presumed the BA Seamaster Rancheros would have had Ranchero type BA hands......with a triangular lume in the minute hand. Perhaps not.

    I believe it came both ways. There are numerous pics, just on this forum, of the triangle and the "straight thin" lume. Even in your pic, the middle minute hand looks different from the other two. Can you provide close-up of it?

    It's a dial only a father could love...

    Do you have a movement shot? Guessing it's got problems

    Replacement crown too.

    The dial and hands go together but you'd need an extract to see if it's been transformed

    Movement doesn't look too bad in my opinion

    Will leave that Patinero as is. An extract will provide more knowledge. I might grab another dial one day....

    Another example of the "straight line" lume from an earlier thread you actually started:

    Certainly looks like it is original to the watch to me. What do you think?
