    Hi all.
    Seen this one on FB and like to know if you have ever seen this dial on a dogleg lug case?
    Best.

    Seen it (or something nearly identical) on a 168.015 or 168.025, but never on a 168.005 before. It makes sense it might fit being all those references had 564s inside.

    I'm tempted to call shenanigans on that watch.

    No. That's a dial from a Ref. 168.025. Both have cal. 564 movements, so it should fit a 168.005 case, more or less.

    The difference is probably covered up by the trim ring on the crystal.

    It's a shame because it's an original dial, in good condition also. Just in the wrong case.

    PS - D, the 168.015 is the dome dial version.

    Thanks - always get the two confused. I think I owned both somewhere along the line.
