    Good for the money and well worth having, the hands and the pushers say two different decades to me...

    Sorry for the “off topic” question but I couldn’t find a thread that I could ask the following:

    Is the corrosion you see in the picture a logical outcome from a vintage NOS watch stored for more than 60 years?

    Thanks in advance!!

    There is no evidence in the pic that it's even a UG.

    Looks like some, not so great repair work was done on lug?

    Also the pictures are horrendous :)

    Nothing wrong with the lug.

    Calatrva style cases are one piece, lugs are solid.

    Solid gold lugs break, relatively easily.

    Do you have a clearer pic with the case back off, it looks soldered on ebay?

    I don't think anyone said it wasn't nice, I like it a lot, I was just questioning if the lug at 5 was repaired, it seems to be lacking some definition on the back side, looks lumpy and discolored and the seller says he "detailed and removed oxidation".

    No repairs to the lugs ever. One piece case.
