Collectors from UK - Have you ever seen any odd C-Case's around?

Hi everyone,

I recently bought these 2 beautiful watches from UK, I've also heard of a Pt case that was in UK but it was sold and the lead I had didn't provide any more details, he initially said he had the watch, then admitted he was just going to buy the one in the UK and sell it to me

I'm just wondering if anyone noticed any unique 561-751 cal. C-Case's in antique shops or from private sellers, if so I'd appreciate some pointers, buying help, or just keep me in mind if you see one! 馃榾

These bi-color dials are usually in UK, I got another one from UK that was date-only, and the black dial was sold 2 years ago in auction, an antiques dealer bought it, got it serviced, and it was sitting in that shop until the seller decided to create an Instagram account - so this made me wonder what other gems are out there

At this point I'm basically looking for oddities to enrich my collection, no matter how ugly

Could you elaborate on what is odd about the left one? is it about the dial's outer ring being darker?

Can't go out to take a decent photo these days as my new puppy takes all my attention and harrasses me quite a bit 馃榾

The dial is gray and the indices are gold, making it a genuine bi-color watch, I've only seen these in UK

My apologies, but I also can't understand exactly what you are emphasizing, or what you mean by "bi-color". Do you mean "two-tone"? If so, that generally refers to watches with two different colors of metal.
