··not the sharpest pencil in the ΩF drawerNumber of interesting UG (and derivatives) for sale: https://drouot.com/en/v/155583-watches#dsi-row-lot-27157230 Some of them new to the market but most of them were seen earlier (and interestingly: not that long ago). Estimates are ambitious.

·Not on eBay, just received some photos from the seller. No photos of movement.
Opinions on the dial? 🙁

··not the sharpest pencil in the ΩF drawerRemarkable: the collection of the late Mr Lang will be auctioned. He was one of the foremost experts on chrono's and writer of one of the standard books on them:
I already posted a very questionable Movado: click
Another watch is this 22541: https://www.bonhams.com/auction/303...nt-mecanique-tri-compax-ref-22541-circa-1945/. Bonhams can obviously not be bothered to tell that this is a blatant redial.

·Bunch of redials in that auction so I checked reports on a few and they actually mentioned it. Though you have to download the report as not in brief description of the lots.
Also seems like pocket watches is where that auction is at its best but honestly not what I focus on so didn’t look at closely.

··not the sharpest pencil in the ΩF drawerHate that. Just tell it.
Very rare one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/356228400398 Obviously poor redial but the case is not too bad.

Gifted by Haile Selassie (also called Ras Taffari) to Nils Dahlberg. Their connection is easy to proof. See for instance: https://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:279293/FULLTEXT01.pdf

··not the sharpest pencil in the ΩF drawerAnother nice example of auction houses and descriptions: https://www.bonhams.com/auction/295...-wind-chronograph-wristwatchref-22420-c-1945/
This must be one of the worst redials I've ever seen. But according to Bonhams:

·I thought if someone could work their magic using laser welding or whatever it is they do these days to repair cases, it might be worth bargaining for, but the dial plots seem too washed out to me to be appealing.

I’ve got to think of it could be repaired, they’d have done it. As far as I know, laser welding is generally a surface treatment and couldn’t be used to facilitate a structural repair like this.
