    I rather like this watch but wanted to run it by some more knowledgeable people here before going further.

    The things that are flagging up for me are

    1) that there is no "T" for Tritium. I know not all watches had this, but it raises questions for much such as whether it's a redial, or lume was added later (that's quite a blob at 12, and it also looks a bit off centre at 6). To be fair, I don't think that's the case because the markers are indented so if there was nothing there originally it would look very odd with the minute marks positioned as they are.
    2) do you think that ill-fitting bracelet is likely to have cause wear between the lugs? There are no pictures of this so it's hard to tell. I could ask the seller but don't want to engage about it if you people tell me the watch is not worth going for.

    Thank you for your help, as always.

    This watch looks absolutely nice and correct to me. :thumbsup:

    I'd wear it on a leather strap.

    Here is one for your own comparison:

    I agree with you. But I thought the picture was a good reference for the OP.

    Fair enough, I removed the link from my post. ;)

    Why would the source not be reliable? Are they known to dealing dodgy watches?

    The main person behind the page got banned from the OF for shady business practices.
