路My latest arrival is this ref.2652 cal.354 `hobnail` which is proving to be a tricky little bugger to photograph 馃榾
Chris - amazing Connie, well done & congrats!!
And your photography skills ... very nice capture of the details. Your pics certainly do the watch justice 馃憤

Thank you very much 馃榾
What I find amazing about these old textured dials is the quality of the printing. When a watch like this is under a loupe it is clear to see but most of the time in photo麓s that just doesn麓t come across very well and that is what I tried to emphasize.
The printing is so sharp on what appears to a very awkward surface. I would love to learn more about the process used back in the 1950麓s to achieve this result.

路yep -just the ticket
nice family heirloom to keep a hold of
does the inscription say 1957?
if that is a 9M serial number it appears to date it to around 1950
