    Anyone seen this before on a watch.
    From my Japanese colleagues it is a import duty paid sticker that was used in 50/60's.
    Also, the patina on the medallion is not something I have seen before. Usually, glossy all over but this has matt background with shinny details.

    That's what an unworn medallion looks like. :)

    The gold cap edge on the underside of the lugs is also still very well defined....

    That looks like a stunning piece. Look at how the lugs blend almost seamlessly into the case. :)

    Polished examples of this have the lugs sticking out from the sides of the case.

    It ticked all my condition boxes, as clean and sharp an example that I have seen.

    So the high points (stars, and some observatory features) were polished during manufacturing?

    Did you find it on eBay, or are you selling it?

    It looks like it has been polished a time or two. Do you know how much they are asking?
