i bought this universal geneve compur 30 about 3 year ago. i checked the serial number, it was produced around 1940, the case shape, movement matches, hand looks perfect.
However, i did not find this dial in any reference. the character "compur 30" at 6 o'clock looks strange, and i suspect the dial was restored.
the chrono button on 2 o'clock is running good, i can hear the crisp sound. The rebounce of reset button at 4 o'clock is a bit weak, most of time only half rebounce, i need slightly touch it, then it will full come out. i brought it to a local watchmaker, and he said its normal for this kind of old chronograph, coz they use lever to reset, not spring.
please tell me what u think. thanks!
