I picked up this Paul Vallette watch as a Valentines Day gift for my wife. Paul Vallette was a brand of Ed. Heuer, precursor to TAG Heuer. The watch probably dates to the mid-1920s to the early 1930s. The dial design caught my eye. Hard to capture in a photo, the hands have been furnace blued. As you can see from the photos, the dial really changes with the lighting. Just a neat little piece.
My intent is to have an "elegant" bund-style strap designed/made just slightly wider than watch case that the watch will sit atop to give it a more "modern" presence. Playing around with designs now as my WM services the movement.
