These are plentiful, very nice watches. For that price I think you can find one with a better dial this one has some blistering and spotting. I would keep looking- lots in Japan check ebay

I'm finding the spots and blisters to be pretty distracting.

Keep using the cream. Before long Little Dan will be fine.

The lugs look a bit overpolished too. But my eyes aren't what they used to be.

Also, the endlinks appear to be 1mm too small.

Good luck.

I have always been wary of crosshairs that skip the text. Am I right in that thinking, or is there some nuance in understanding crosshairs?

So many connoisseurson here moaning about a slight blemish on a 60 year old dial, look, the watch is all fine, crowns original, back, movements been serviced at some point, obviously not a bad example, with original bracelet yea it's fine, if you want an unblemished dial just buy a new watch, blemishes, bubbling scratches are part of that watches history, that's the beauty of vintage

As there are a lot of these watches around, while you can buy one with dial issues, you don’t need to. To each their own.
