Would be great to see better close ups of the two square ones

Unfortunately the other 2 watches are not mine so I can’t share more pictures

Excellent condition for it's age. Is that an original or just a vintage strap in the first pictures?

I bought the watch like this, there is no name in the strap or clasp, I don’t know if on the 30ties they stamped the brand name on the straps .

I wouldn't care too much about the strap! 😀 These are things made to be changed during life, so...

did you had any issue with the case... it's my first chromed plated case (as per the reference of the watch is supposed to be chromed plated)
mine is in perfect conditions but I have been reading that people don´t like them and prefers stainless steel...?
My watch has a stainless steel case. So I can't comment on the chrome plated.

thanks Larry, I always care on my watches but if scraping or banging happens is due to an accident :O(
by the way I love your dog :O) he/she seems to be steering on us lol
That was his “I am a superior being, serve me!” face. It is a great shot. Sadly he passed last year at 16 after a great life.

I feel ver sorry to hear that, my last dog also had 16 when he passed away. I love dogs

What DIBS means? Thanks
DIBS means that if you ever decide to sell the watch, he wants to be the first one you offer the watch to.

I guess no Swiss at the bottom of the dial is normal for this model ?
Just noticed that my dial has Swiss written at the bottom it's just not visible in the pictures.
