    Hi. Not sure about the upper ones, but at least one of these looks like a bad redial. You can see how inconsistent the Seamaster writing is on the one to the right.

    Here is a legit example.

    Oh, they are yours! Sorry. Maybe that sounded very negative. Very interesting watches. Another member posted a recently acquired Connie with the name of Kim-il-Sung if I am not mistaken.

    Yes, that was me :). I recently got the Extract of the Archive (the digital version), but I am wondering: It doesn´t say North Korea on it, just Korea (although it is very obvious that it has been sent to N.Korea, who else would order such a dial? I also found a extract from a another watch like mine on the Internet with a nearby movement number, also sent on the same date like mine, at the 04.September 1978 to NORTH Korea).
