    The photos are not great but there's nothing jumping out at me. Movement serial is in line with the reference # dates. Dauphine hands; are they original? Dial looks to me to be original but I'll defer to the experts. Seller has mostly watches listed.
    Where's the elephant in the room?

    I see no elephant. Watch looks good to me.

    Only thing wrong is that the gasket in the back needs to be replaced soon.

    Hope you got it.

    Nope. Made the mistake of having breakfast.

    I hope it wasn't someone else on the forum unless it was mere coincidence. Seem bad etiquette to pinch it based on someone else's enquiry post.

    That was my thinking. I'll go with my less cynical side and believe it was coincidence.

    Made the mistake a few Sundays ago of taking two sips of coffee and showing the misses. Damn you @Tritium ;)

    Gixen.com is your friend. Set it and forget it.

    I'll keep that in mind for the future. Unfortunately, this one had a BIN option, which is why it was taken while I was having breakfast.

    Here's another one that appears to be okay. Depending on the angle of the photos, there seems to be a little schmutz between 1 and 2. It's been polished but not expert enough to know how bad because the stars are still visible. Thoughts? $_57 (553x1024).jpg connie6 (1024x522).jpg connie 2 (1024x550).jpg connie 3 (536x1024).jpg connie 5 (1024x838).jpg connie 4 (1024x1002).jpg

    That particular dial looks pretty dirty, a no-go for me on such a dressy piece.

    Some of the minute register is missing. I suspect that is from a botched dial cleaning attempt.

    Not the one for you.
