Exciting cal 26.5 SOB T2 (1939) with salmon dial, 31 mm case. Modele + Depose...

Dear fellow OF members. This little beauty was collected today and I will shortly post additional high resolution pictures. The case has no complete drilled lug holes and seems very familiar to the one used for the Officer cases.
The other 26.5 I have encountered have all completely drilled lug holes.
Here are the first pictures, photographed in quite poor daylight. Any thoughts are most velcome.
Edit: pictures added.

Yes, I really like the dial. The minute hand is relumed, it still glows. I have searched but cant find much information regarding this one. I will continue my search and return with more information.

Nice dial I indeed!

The position of the regulator suggests the movement would benefit from a service.

The watch gains several minutes/day, service is needed. Besides the relumed minute hand it seems all genuine.

The minute hands may be relumed, but the texture and colour of the hour hand makes up for it. Very special watch.
