·I bought this watch in NYC, on 5th ave, and 42d St or thereabouts, around 25 years ago, plus or minus 2. It was nicely boxed, but no documentation of serial number. Seattle recently refurbished it at some expense, and returned looking great with a new dial. In the record of service, the place for serial number shows NA. Also, at the Michigan Ave. store, the clerk mentioned that the serial number on the case had been "polished" out. My question: was there ever a serial number on the case or the movement? During service, was the serial number illegible on the movement or was it ever there? For a time I wondered if it had been stolen, but I assume that I would not have received the leatherette box and some instructional papers at the time of purchase if stolen.
