Well... let's agree that you can't buy love but you can RENT it. So, let's share, I'll spened the money and we can send it around the globe (always over the N. Pole), sharing it.

The history of your watch makes it as valuable as anything that you've seen here.
Your response is spot on and shows that you have a heart. Thank you for adding that comment.

Type B is on the A-list in my books! 49442226628_309978137c_h.jpg
Hi,
I have a nos dial like this but it is two-tone (all the tachymeter area is more shiny), is it the photo, a different model or (sorry) a redial ?
Besides, there are no deeper circles on the outside of the subdials...
Maybe mine is a redial ! 馃う

very nice dial. Yours does appear quite glossy/silvery around the tachy but I think they are all like this. When cased up, the curve of the domed crystal distorts the effect of the different surface of the tachy scale . You can see the different texture under the crystal at certain angles and as far as the silver colour, I think this is just a case of exposure/lighting the same way that silver dials appear white in photos. If the brightness/highlights are dialed down on photos of these then the silver appears.

a few more pics of mine below with the different texture more evident
