    I believe that the running seconds sub is incorrect? Any other issues?

    Thanks

    It's a little hard to say from the photos, but at first glance it seems that the lugs are overpolished. Do you have other photos?

    The dial is beautiful.

    I agree the running seconds subdial I believe is not correct and I might argue that I would expect to see a different shaped crown but the rest looks correct to me

    How about the lumed hands? I had one of these in gold and it had non-lumed hands. I'm not knowledgeable enough here at all to say whether or not the lumed could be correct, but seeing as the dial has no lume...

    I almost owned one of these with a pulsations scale. The crown was a large bowler style and it was NOS.
    The dealer and I couldn’t agree on a price.
    Found a photo:

    I saw that also, saw pics both ways but my assumption is like yours: both should be lumed

    Any Other thoughts on polishing? That was my first concern before I started nit picking other stuff

    I don’t blame him but I wanted it for a lot less!

    Definitely badly polished. The lugs should be facetted.

    I just looked at mine... I do believe the white is paint for contrast and not lume? Or just lume for hand position?

    The luminous models came with lume balls on the rehaut / inner bezel. The one @Rman posted still has these. The one from the OP has already lost it's balls. The overpolished case would bother me a lot more though. Really a pity as the dial is simply stunning ::love::
