I am looking at buying this watch..it has SAM as the day of the week on the date wheel.. what language is this?? Will it devalue the watch since I am in English speaking country also what is a fair price to pay.. Thanks
Looks like it is in German. Sam would then be short for samstag meaning saturday. In general I would say that yes it slightly devalues the watch in a country with a different language. It is hard to say something about price from one picture, but it looks a bit rough. However, if the price is right (as in maybe 200 euros, depending on how the movement looks), this is exactly the type og watch I could see myself pick up. How much is the seller asking (if its not yours to sell)?
SAM could be: French - SAM - Samedi, Saturday, Day of the Sabbath, or German - SAM - Saturday - Saturn Day Country you're in doesn't really matter, you get to understand the names of the days.
Unfortunately I made an offer that was too low and the watch sold to another party..the search continues!!
Given the stains on the dial and the fact the integrated bracelet is missing, the day being in the wrong language is the last of it s issues.
