This photos 911 also havent got lume dots on 3,6,9 with yellow hands? Is it some version havent got lume dots? I am not flight expert...
Photos from web.. not my watch
Expecting my "transitional" (911 in 145.013 case) ... Will post some photos ASAP.
The Transitional is a cal 910 in a 145.026 case, in fact. The transitional dial has a different font on the subdial at 9 :
It was a 145.013 dial where they removed the green paint and printed the running seconds track instead (left). I have an example of extract of archives mentioning a cal 910 in a 145.026 case, with that transitional dial, to confirm that theory.
The other way around doesn鈥檛 make any sense to me. Why would a 145.026 movement/dial be fitted in an early case else than a custom build ? What do the Archives say?
Look forward to see your shade of transitional anyways 馃榾
Time ago i found this example. In this one the dial was switched with a 145.036 one but the movement was still the 910 (i think with some changes).
Rollie used this watch as a tool, not a piece of jewelry, and later when reference 145.036 came out with continuous running seconds subdial at 9, he found that function to be more useful for him and had his watch "upgraded" (as he states in his letter) to new style dial and function. So, the watch still has the Cal. 910 movement and is still a 145.013, but has a 145.036 dial.
Well, this is nothing you can take as a reference. It's a cal.910 altered on purpose to have a running second instead of 24h subcounter at 9 and a later dial to have a correct subcounter. In other words, it's a modded watch with a movement that doesn't feature the functions it should and an incorrect dial. Nice to have a story around it... without some storytelling it would certainly be nicknamed 'Paperclip Flightmaster' 馃榿
I've seen and touched a 35M with original circular brush.
