    How does the condition of mine(case, back, inside case back, movement) rank from the ones around you've seen?

    We'll deal with dial attributes when I can get some pix up.

    And yours looks fantastic!

    This pix should show sharpness of lugs as approaching side of case.

    Even through the blurring ::facepalm1::

    Your case looks sharp and unpolished and the dial looks nice also.

    You're at the head of the line, Miki! And that, as Pops would say, ain't no Oklahoma guarantee :) . . .

    @TexOmega, now I know why it has taken so long to have my watches serviced.

    Here's the very same reference in identical trim (albeit a '57) . . .

    IMG_0005.JPG IMG_0008.JPG IMG_0009.JPG

    . . . plus lumed hands and markers, provided on special order to the original retail customer.

    I know the backstory of this one first-hand; it's for real, down to the original strap and buckle.

    As it happens, not mine. The upside is, I still have both my kidneys.

    :)

    And here's something similar - seamaster and non-chronometre. This is one of the watches that reminds me of the HUGE number of dial variations omega produced - partial textured black dial with mixture of arrowhead markers in WG (with lume) and arabic numbers. A true mishmash of styles.
