Thoughts on this watch? I purchased it a few years ago before really getting into this game and now have come to have concerns about the watch (especially the dial). I've always enjoyed wearing it but was curious to learn more. Appreciate the help! (Movement shot was taken on a different date).

 

Hook "S" drop "r" cal 501, no rotor wear.......with linen ......whats not to like?


except, Heavily polished case

 

I was waiting for someone else to opine on this. It looks like a great linen dial and seems original to me- but I’m not seeing a second track. I looked at other versions of this model with linen dial and they all had a second track.
And the crown looks like it’s for an earlier style but this is right at that transition point from the big lug cases.
The bracelet of course is not original to the watch but I think this is good looking despite the over polish.

 

Yes I purchased the bracelet separately. Definitely agree that the case has been polished, but the lack of minute markers has been the biggest red flag for me
