    Thanks

    Really smitten by the look of this one - I did dig out my stainless 168.019s and look - no T, but both mine have the black hands and no lumen on the dial, so doesn't really help at all. sorry... The fonts and the inking look great to me though.....

    confirmation that its a good copy.

    Looks perfectly fine. My SS .017 with silver version of yours dial has the same "Swiss Made" only marking.
    :thumbsup:

    :) That's lume, not lumen. Damn autocorrect.

    It gets two snaps up in a circle from me.

    My favorite is when autocorrect turns "Breitling" into "breathing".

    Ed, take your pills. I've been much better since I got my dosage corrected. ;)
