    Looks like it worked out. Why is it hard to post nice photos in 2023?

    Nice little Hammy for the money (offers accepted too). All steel and case should be 35mm. Needs a new crystal and a nice strap but this should clean up real nice.

    Just got home and seen this and discovered it’s already sold. I’d been looking for this type of estoril, with the non-cursive script :(

    Same. That's a neat little watch. Gotta move fast once something is posted here!

    I am to blame on this one. I made on offer last night before it was posted here, and the seller countered this morning.

    I thought there was an unwritten (or written somewhere) rule that we HAD to post here first before making an offer! Nice catch, sir. Update us with pics once you get it cleaned up.

    Congratulations, I’ve already bought one watch this week and appreciate your removing temptation.

    BTW, I couldn’t see any mention of the diameter. What size is it?

    My rule for now is to buy it if I like it, post it if I already have it and I know that it's good find. I hope I learned the dumpster rules correctly from @JwRosenthal.

    Thanks. I assumed it is 34 - 35mm. It doesn't look smaller than that to me based on the ratios in the photos, but what do I know, so we will see.

    Would anybody here know if this is a re-dial or the original for a 168.027 Connie?

    One of the uglier redials I’ve seen recently.

    Here’s what it should look like:

    I'm a bit confused by the recent thread drift ::confused2::
    Can't wait to be unnecessarily tempted again by all the great watches you all dig up.

    Yes, very pretty.
    I'm guessing less than 33mm, what do you think?

    Yeah, I would assume 32 or 33mm but probably wears bigger due to the wide bezel and large lugs

    Could be more considering the dial looks almost as wide as 2 fingers here. It's possible the person wearing it in the photos has larger wrists.
