Hi all,

I found this SM with nice dial pattern which I intend to buy. However, I notice that there is a little crack between hours 4 and 5. Is that normal and do you find it a big deal (breaker)?
It seems that it is that visible on the photo without the glass.
Also, the crown is missing.

Was also wondering what would be a reasonable price for this given that it is 14k gold.
Could only find a few examples online and all are selling or sold above 1.5k - is that sensible?

The ‘crack’ is just the ends of the crystal retaining ring.
Interesting dial.
However, the bent lug above 11 would make it a pass for me unless it was very cheap and you like a gamble with having it repaired.

Thanks!
I hadn't noticed the bent lug actually. Is that repairable by a jeweler?

Very possibly but there is also a chance that it will snap off all together when trying to straighten it.
(Who knows how stable the joint between the lug and case is?)
Hence the gamble.....
