Found this watch on eBay, i like the watch but from the ref no. 30xxx the watch should be from 1970, but there is no T after SWISS MADE....is that correct? Also please help comment on the watch

Regards
Ko

 

Cause there is no tritium on the dial

 

Oh ok, just read an article on it, thought the T was suppose to b on the watch after Ref 21 millions thank you, any comment on the watch anyone?

 

I am afraid that movement was from a C case constellation

 

Hi hoipolloi, can you share what indicated that the movement is from a C case constellation? Not doubting your opinion, just I am still new to this and want to learn

 

Ok, I might get it now...168.005 was produced from 1962-1968 therefore the ref number should not be more than 26xxxx. With the ref on the watch showing 32xxxx, the movement was produced in1970 so it came from a C case! Am I correct?

 

Yes, you are correct.

 

Thanks for pointing it out otherwise I would be real disappointed if I get the watch...but someone will be since quite a few people is bidding on this item! The watch look nice though

 

From a missing "T" to re-cased movement...WOW!! Lucky I asked

 

The watch was sold for 1,972 Euro!
