    In my view you are missing nothing (as usual). Redial. Left sub dial cut out is asymmetric versus the one on the right, ie decapitated ‘8’ versus fuller ‘4’ on the main dial itself, no ‘Swiss’ is always a talking point on Compax and usually not deemed correct, top lugs are drilled through, bottom ones look female and so on. Parts of the case are undeniably attractive but, for me, the watch as it stands is a very different one to the one that left the factory.

    I just thought Private Eyes was considered a more reliable seller ?

    Me too. They are personal friends of esteemed members here and no doubt others will spring to their defence. However, this particular watch has been around the block and looks a little bit different each time it pops back up. Here it is a few years back, still sporting those concerning rounded subdial 3’s;

    This one’s not on eBay but via Stetz & Co (@steztcowatches on Instagram). A stunner, that I figured merited some attention here. I have no affiliation to the seller. But wow...just wow.
    Polerouter Jet 10364-2, Art Deco, solid 18k yellow gold.

    Didn’t forget. Just didn’t want to post the same listing in multiple chains (eBay, and double signed UGs). Feel free. ;)

    Those numerals are really amazing, never seen them before. Is this a Turler configuration or do they exist without the double signed dial as well?
