·Hi guys,
Still on the hunt for a nice seamaster or, more likely a connie with the 50s fat arrowhead hour markers. Got a nice example here from Japanese dealer Tachibana Watch Shop. Granted, if patina isnt your thing then this won't be for you.
Any immediate red flags jumping out to the 2852 experts out there? Thanks!
From my perspective, the hands are all original and the lettering is correct. odd discolouration on the sharktooth markers at 12, 3, 6,9 and very partially at 1. Not a redial, MOY test is cleared. RE lettering and straight legged M on chronometre. The case is in decent condition, unpolished? lugs not terribly sharp but pretty nice. Caseback medallion is in good condition, with all stars sharp and visible. seems to not had much wrist-time? Decagonal crown is period correct. no images of movement - but dealer states serial number is 1543. might request some images of the inside before making any move.
