    hi guys,

    hunt, hunt, hunt.

    found this. case is pretty beat up, has had a hard life. looks original though.

    anything amiss here?

    What's a good range for something in this condition?

    thanks,

    IMO the word "Seamaster" has been added later, it is different in color and font

    I'm still new to these, but I think I've seen them both with and without the seamaster, esp on the lower portion of the dial.

    Will keep staring at the pics..

    Edit: hmm, maybe not with the seamaster on the lower part of the dial.. how much does that devalue the piece? Where's ranchero101.com (the equivalent of speedmaster101.com)?

    The one pictured has a 16,3M serial.. correct for Ranchero?

    another example with "Seamaster" above the seconds subdial... text also looks off colour.

    is this a real variant, or some sort of add-on/re-dial?
