    Guys, I've reached the age where I seem to be going to a funeral every couple of weeks. Out of respect I feel I should be wearing something a bit more appropriate than a sports/tool watch so have been looking around for a nice vintage dress watch.
    I've found this Le Coultre advertised locally and quite like the look of it.
    Can anyone give an opinion as to originality as I'm not really a vintage watch guy.
    Thanks in advance. 20170419145903-epid-508441-20170417133300epid508189img_0256.jpg 20170419145913-epid-508441-20170417133238epid508189img_0253.jpg 20170419145926-epid-508441-20170417133337epid508189img_0264.jpg

    My opinion: This watch is re-cased & redialed.

    Hmm we have to defer to the LeCoultre experts here. I think it's too good to be true. Don't like the spacer either.

    I agree, the movement and dial look much too small for that case.

    No, this is what you call a dress watch:
