I searched for a Connie 2943/2954 with a black dial for a long time, but when I finally found it, it was a full set. I drew inspiration from Desmond's blog; apparently, they were custom-made. It just came back from service. I asked not to polish or wash the case; I want it in its original condition.

When we were talking about Fab. Suisse, I didn't have this kit yet. Then things moved quickly, I bought this one and 2648, cal. 352
