    Looks legit to me (and acquired from first owner) but I can't find a similar one on the interwebs so with Geneva directly after Polerouter. Anyone who can confirm this one?

    Looks like a legit late 1960's watch.

    Needs some work, though.

    I second gatorcpa. I have a similar watch, no date with a white dial. I think that once you change the crystal you'll have a great looking watch.

    Partly yes: plexi has a lot of scratches but the dial itself has some spotting as well.

    The only reason to want spotting is if you want to get it at a better price. Unless you're a weird collector, like Kyle.

    I think spotting gives it character. It's a 50 year old watch, I want it to look like its 50 years old.
