Very nice. Don’t think I’ve ever seen one similar to the upper one

Why ? Isn't 'Hermès' supposed to be engraved on the back ? and the dial might be a redialled, it is a flat, simple dial...😗
You have a point on the engraving.

Were these available in different colours? I think I recall seeing this model in red as well.

Strong result btw...

And an announcement in the programme for the 24 hours of Le Mans 1949, offering the winner an UG chronometre.

I was bidding on that one. Didn't note down the price, but think it went for around 3-4k.

Hard to make anything from the number. Otherwise I could perhaps tell whether this was a batch with more 3rd party names
