    Gold plated with a steel back. Dial looks original to me. Seconds hand likely replaced, but the original is a generic and shouldn't be too difficult to find.

    Buy-it-now for $250 with free shipping in the US.

    No, I'm not the seller. But I'd like to see someone on this forum snap it up.

    Very nice and seller is even taking offers if you want to push your luck. The movement alone is easily worth the asking.

    You can tell the seller isn't a watch collector because they list "case polished" under "the good:".

    You can do it. Just keep looking at the picture showing the damaged underside of the lugs if you need extra will power.

    Man that's hard to resist. I have to tell myself "no, you know it is too small". Can't see myself wearing anything smaller than 36mm.

    I bought an older 40s-50s handwind in a pawnshop in Riverton Wyoming one time. Cost me roughly $11.00 with tax. Sold for about $700 to fund other purchases.

    Good. That's why I posted it here.

    Let's see it on your wrist when it arrives.
