·I've had a search, and can't find a thread on the topic of small (30-34mm) watches with radium dials (although if it's in here somewhere, please forgive me), so thought this might be a fun thing to talk about.
There seem to be a lot of these little guys hanging out on the internet, looking for new homes, and I know that there are a good few members with a love for these little radioactive gems from the 30s, 40s, and 50s.
I'll kick thinks off with this 32/33mm Savillon, which contains a 17 jewel Enicar movement.
It's got a steel case, with screw in back, which claims that it was antimagnetic and waterproof at some point, it's time keeping is erratic, it has a bright red sweep second hand which makes me smile, and it was bought for beer money.
So who's got what?
Going to tag @Syrte in, because I'm sure I've seen some goodies she's posted which fit the bill! 😀
