    Serial Number: 11,462,605
    Movement: bumper 342
    Caseback: 10861375
    2581

    Material, 14k gold w/ hallmark on or near lug

    I didn't get a chance to take better photos of the full case and I just couldn't get my phone to focus well so I apologize for the blurriness.

    Second hand looked short, and the crown was unsigned and looks like a generic replacement. I wasn't sure how to break apart the numbers on the case back to do a good search and playing around on google images didn't return too much of value.

    A very poorly executed redial.

    PASS.

    as X350XJR says - this is a terrible redial and I would advise against purchasing it.

    Thanks, wonder how much the gold is worth lol. Using the case back, how would I search for what that watch should be? I want to be able to search for that stuff a little better on my own as well.

    I searched a bunch of cal 342's and didn't get very far with that.

    EDIT: I should also say, I wasn't anticipating to go back and buy this one either way. I know I'd never wear it, and funds are a bit type right now even if it was 100% correct. I probably should have added "for research purposes" to my title :)

    Note to Redialers: Make sure your black magic marker is not running out of ink before you start lettering the dial.

    Just be careful posting full serial numbers, 11,46X, XXX would be better. I don't fully understand the issue, I just follow what the cool kids are doing. ;)

    There is no issue to understand, it's simply urban-legend.

    This watch is currently advertised on Ebay ( Australia) as a 100% genuine watch with a possible earlier restoration done to the dial. If anyone considering buying it I guess a fair warning of this " franken watch is appropriate. The asking price is about 1400 Euros! Guess anyone paying that kind of money would be very disappointed.
