Hello! thanks for having me! I acquired this watch in a trade but can't seem to find anything about this exact model. Can anyone shine some light for me? Thanks!!
In that case, I'm not sure what more to add. The dial has been refinished at some point and the overall condition is rough, obviously. If you can read the serial number off of the movement (probably hidden by the "rotor"), we can give you the approximate year of production.
i see. So you think the dial is not the orignal? if yes, that might explain why i cant find any of these that look the same
The original dial may have looked quite similar, I don't know. But some features of the printing suggest that it was repainted in the past. This was quite common. The hands also appear to be replacements since they are too short. It's quite an old watch, and it's not uncommon for people to make repairs over the years to keep the watch functional.
From what i could find, it was made around the 1940s and its a military edition. Amazing how it is still going. Gonna gave it fixed and put it to work! Thanks for all the help!
Here’s one (Looks like someone has attempted to clean the dial at some point ?) and the appropriate description from page 255 of AJTT
