Appreciate any help/ kind comments

 

hi xeer,

This is a franken watch. The case is from roughly 1946 (perhaps bought in 1950) and the dial/crown/moon phase disc are from the mid 50's. The case is really overpolished as well. Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Jordan

 

Oops I meant this to be pm oh well

 

That is highly.. upsetting. Thanks jordn.

Anyone else has any input?

 

Do you have the ref / serial no.?

 

I have included some good pictures that might help.

However, it is awaiting moderation?

 

The ref / serial numbers should normally be visible on the case back. Do you have that?

 

I can't tell of the second number is a 2 or a 7 on the serial number. If Jordn said 1945 then I would say that it's a 2. Jordn pretty much summed it all up in his PM.

Is the font size difference normal between day and month?

It does look put together sorry! Looking at the dial, it looks like it has been rolling around in a watchmakers drawer unprotected for some time, which is usually a good indication of it beeing replacement. You don't get scratches like that when covered by a crystal.

 

Yep
