    Hi there,

    could you guys talk me through a potential ENICAR purchase? ...

    I don't have too much info, but here we go:

    No movement pics, but it holds a VALJOUX 92


    A few educated guesses from my side:

    - 1950ies?
    - looks like an original dial
    - looks like original hands (not sure about the red lollypop second hand though)
    - replacement crown

    I don't know very much about Enicar - but it does look rather nice ;)


    your thoughts?

    cheers, Al

    '50's, if early the val 92 is without shock protection.

    Dial looks right, chrono hand is a replacement I think.

    IMO way too much for condition. Would definitely be a pass for me.
