    Evening all - I picked this up during the week and wondered if anyone could help me to date it before I have to have the back taken off.
    By the way, new strap on the way.

    Hi Giles, nice watch! Should be from the 50s, but the movement serial should give you a better date.

    Thanks Kyle :) it was possibly the luckiest purchase yet for me.
    Great opportunity to make some quick and easy money and yet..... I'm going to have to put a nice strap on it and put it with the others ;-)

    :) Great to know I'm in good company :) Does it look ok to you too Dennis?
    I love the two tone dial and I'm really hoping that its a straight as I think it is because I want it to be a keeper.

    It's been relumed and the crown is a replacement, but neither point is a deal breaker.
