路168.010 1966 (I think)
There's something about those pearlescent dome dials, just beautiful.

路I only have these two hummers. They get a lot of wrist time surprisingly. It's unbelievable how accurate they are after 40 plus years.

路I really like that black dial! Reminds me of the Millennium Falcon going into hyperspace.
That a quartz should be accurate is not amazing, it's normal. Amazing is the caliber 504 on my daily wear Connie. I haven't actually measured how much it gains or loses, but I only set it every 3-4 weeks and it's never off by more than a minute. Considering this model doesn't have a hacking second, I think that's amazing.
Amazing in a different way is how inaccurate some cheap quartz is.

路As bought condition, SS dog-leg piepans only, in line for a trip to the spa. 2 references, 3 different case manufacturers, 3 calibres and 7 dial variants. A few other non doglegs or non piepans not shown, and still many more dogleg piepans variants not owned yet.
Hi @TNTwatch little late, but 3 different case manufacturers you mention... Can you elaborate on that a bit?
I noticed one your watches (and I've noticed this before with other dog legs) that the 'slope' of the bevel on the lugs is at a sharper angle on some lugs (see watches on the second row on the zoom in below), are there perhaps more tell tale signs?

All of them have that slope at an angle on the lugs - the main differentiation to counterfeit cases.

路3 case makers are CB, HF and SGR. There are slight variations even within the same makers that can only be seen more clearly on hand than in pictures. Perhaps I need a few dozens more examples to document them all 馃槈

Thanks, I didn't know about the 3.
What I meant to say (with my perhaps crappy English) is that this angle seems to differ a bit on the watches:
