Dear all,

Looking for info on Grandpa's piece, I found this thread. Many thanks to all of you for posting and teaching me how "special" that T17 movement is.

Allow me to post a few pics:

I found a watchmaker to lightly polish the case, change the glass, service the movement and carefully clean the dial. The result is this:

Question: does any one have a precise idea, from the dial layout, of the precise era of this one?

Cheers

I think it is from the end of 1930s to the beginning of 1940s.
If the serial number of the movement begins with an 8, it is from the 30s.

You all have very pretty watches. The 30's, golden age of design. The CK921 is spectacular. Fabulous case design. were there original mineral crystals or are these replacements?
