    Hi folks, just discovered this wonderful forum. I have over the last year or so developed a keen interest in mechanical watches. I have some grail watches that I am saving for, but in the meantime wish to collect a few interesting vintage pieces. I love the look of the Geneve and have found one for sale but it looks a little too clean to me. Maybe had a dial refinish? I would appreciate any help. Here's the link...

    It's a site from here in New Zealand and the price is in NZ dollars.

    Case looks a bit over polished. Dial may be repainted, if so it's not badly done.

    "T - SWISS MADE - T" doesn't look right to me.

    No mention of service history.

    No movement pics :unsure:

    Not collector quality.

    Almost $700NZ?

    A bit too much for too much unknown.

    Thanks Jim, thats pretty much what I thought. Any idea what I could expect to pay for a decent example? Also do you know what colour dials this model was made with? I have seen black ones and white ones.
