    Hi all,

    Thanks in advance for your help and apologies if I've not posted in the right section, I spent some time looking through posts and seemed appropriate here :s

    Can you tell me what you think before I potentially purchase a huge mistake. Spacers look wrong and can only find one other movement the same (different spacers) on Google.



    Reference search doesn't throw up anything much like it either.

    Cheers,

    Nick

    As Eric says, it is real. However value is another matter ......

    Thanks guys... appreciate the input.

    Sorry, meant reference for the movement.

    I'm a little concerned as the spacing of lettering the 'Ville' seems to not match any other tank or the example in your link I.e. too wide. As experts, think this means a repaint, fake or that there is an authentic version of the dial
    like this?

    As for value... about $150 usd.. sound about right?

    Cheers,

    Nick

    It is small... I'll probably try and poly out the plastic and clean up the case as best as possible with some toothpaste. Sounds silly but did that with a 1958 Hamilthon and turned amazing.... better dial on that though.
