AJTT says it's a 20F but the ad says T17?
The ad is clear and yours has the T17, perhaps another error in AJTT?
Wouldn't you rather have the T17 with it's amazing 60 hrs. of power?
Yann, what does Ecart. Cornes mean?
Sorry, I missed one important line in your post.
´Ecart. cornes' stands for 'écartement des cornes' which means lug width. ´ouv. lun.´ stands for 'ouverture de la lunette' which means inside opening of the bezel.

Are you referring to the CK 901? It existed with both 20F and later with T17
Yes, AJTT only mentions the 20F.

Thank you!
Having International friends that are so helpful is one of the beauties of this hobby and this forum.

Beautiful watch! That is the dial I've been looking for!
You familiar with the term "Dibs"?
It carries some strength here, I'd call it if I were you or I will!

Dibs just means that you want to get in line.
I don't believe it's being offered but no harm in asking!

A nice CK 687. A catalog picture can be found p.19 of the 1937 catalog posted by Dall-Houston, or here in a 1938 catalog :

Mine, waiting for a better dal, says hello :

Yann,

This is a beautiful case. I love it! I also love the dial's print.

When you say waiting for a better dial, what exactly does that mean? Are you searching for a donor watch, etc.?

This is purely information for my education.

Sincerely,

Dall

This watch definitely belongs here. I've not seen one with flexible lugs like this one.

Looks like the T17 movement to me.

Do you know the year and model?

Yes, it is a t17 - serial number 84059xx - 1936? Case number is 9347951. I don't know much about these watches, but I like it.😀

It's a beautiful watch. The profile of the watch on your wrist is perfect.

Wear it and enjoy it!

I love your watch. Those hands are exquisite!

I call dibs if you ever decide to sell it. (Not even kidding a little bit.)

Very nice CK 695, too bad for the dial that was probably repainted a long time ago (see the mark at three on the right side, it's usually made for centering when repainting). Anyway, it's an unusual watch...
