    I am evaluatng this watch, a 2852 ref, rose gold, calibre 505, year 1956 as declared, serial number 15XXXXXX.
    The watch loks perfect under all the checking points, but I have a doubt about the dial script, because the fonts does not have serifs.

    The MOY test is correct, the As, Rs, and Fs are equally correct, but I usually see serifs fonts on the dials e the fonts of this watch look thinner than usually, in my opinion.

    Yes, I did, and I have studied many dials before. But I did not find an answers to my doubts. Besides, this is not a really bad dial or a watch with other errors. The watch is perfect, but the serifs of the fonts. Could it be washed and fonts be altered?

    Thank you. Now I have an explanation about the fonts.

    The rest is very good, in my opinon. I add pitures of the bottom and of the inner.
