    Hi,

    I am far from a Pie Pan expert. Things that I do not 'like': should it not be "ChronometER? vertical hairline doesn't look centered, 'M' not the same in 'Automatic' and 'Chronometre',...

    Is this dial legit?

    Thanks!

    Looks good to me. Looks like a 2852.

    Do you know if the word ChronometRE with "straight" M appeared on all 2852? On other references as well?

    Straight legged "M" is correct for this era with the "RE"

    Just bumping in case anyone has answer to this question: Do you know if the word ChronometRE with "straight" M appeared on all 2852? On other references as well?

    did you check out the thread posted above?
    First page - both straight M and (two) sloping Ms on the 2852 dial

    edit:
    If you are only talking only about pie-pans - then you will need to go through all 13 pages.
    I doubt there is a better resource anywhere else in existence.

    If I remember correctly, the changeover from TRE to TER happened around 1959-1960. What is the year of manufacture for this watch? Serial number?

    As I'm aware, earlier Connies have metRE and later, metER.
