    Ref. 14393 3 SC
    Cal. 561
    Year: Circa 1959

    Dial have issues, but nothing I wasnt aware of before purchase, and since the price was fair (around EUR 440), I couldnt resist.....

    Crappy phone pics:

    Will a polish fix the crystal or is a new needed?

    You bought that one from Bruun-Rasmussen, right? Seems familiar.

    Yes. Actually it was the second time I bought it, as I returned it after buying it the first time they listed it. Second time they listed it, I, to my surprise, got it for EUR 500 less than the first time.....
