    Asking $475 shipped US head only

    Cleaning out the watch box so putting this one up for sale. Watch looks very original except for the crystal which I just had replaced. Case is in nice condition with the original finish still on the sides. It measures about 35mm in diameter. The most interesting thing about this piece is the dial which features a unique orange patina. Movement runs but have not tested for accuracy. Currently keeps decent time but I recommend a service. Any questions please pm me!

    Exactly how clean are you cleaning out the watch box? Do I need to run to the bank?

    Kyle Dyle!
    Honest patina that enhances the character of a time piece...
    Did you forget to say"sold?" Your deals don't usually last very long before someone realizes the high quality/low price factor...
