    It's in very good unpolished condition but that still might be a bit high. I'll reserve further comment until I'm home and can give it more scrutiny.

    Personally I think it's been polished in the past, but the case isn't too bad. Hands also look relumed, and it's possible that the dial was too. I would personally pass. I'm sure with a little time you can definitely find a nice original one in the $500-600 range. :thumbsup:

    Kyle,

    Thanks so much for your input. I wish I had your skill at pulling nice pieces down from EBay.

    Regards,
    Jon

    I don't think its been polished, just honestly worn, but I do think the dial and hands were re-lumed as Kyle pointed out.

    Yes, to high at $925.00.

    Nice watch Should go more then 500 with good condition and silver arrowheads . 600-700 as it is not that unusual and not a chronometre

    I like it, and could live with the relume because it's a pretty good job. I could see myself shelling out $650 for it no problem. I might put a little more weight on the condition of the movement than others and that one looks really good. No service marks on the caseback either - this might have been a "drawer" watch, meaning it was worn by the original owner and instead of paying for a service when needed it was tucked away for decades in a drawer.
