Hello
Found this today in a fair. It looks good in its rose gold.
Fab is forca aerea brasileira. It seems UG provided them the chronos.

We.couldnt open it since there was no proper tool for this (some sellers think just case and dial condition make a sell..)

What do u think?

I think it's a redial but will defer to the real experts. The outer tracks look goofy to me, now Swiss on the dial, and that is a much later UG logo vs the 136 serial. Also the messy 15, 30, 45's intruding on the subidals

Looks like the dial has been repainted, perhaps long ago.

and...it's a compax, not a tri-compax. Though the "compax" is missing from the dial

Very ugly. I wouldn't want it on my wrist as it could be infectious ...

Maybe it's too much! It's not an Hublot! 😁

But yes it is definitely an unattractive watch.

Frankly, I'm surprised the more acerbic forum members haven't piled in.
This is yet another thread soliciting opinions on watches "found at a fair", "came across ... in a recent local search" etc etc... Most of the watches posted about are presently listed on ebay by the same seller.
Now, I wonder who the seller might be

In this case I decided that "If you cant say anything nice, don't say anything at all."
