Hi,
I have not seen the movement yet because I was given it by my father as a present and he told it had just been serviced. I believe it is a calibre 505 model 2930.
Regards

My tropical Speedy. It is difficult capturing just how perfect this dial is. Goes from black to brown beautifully depending on the lighting.

Perhaps I am being Capt Obvious, that's a redial (not there is anything necessarily wrong with that if you're ok with it)

Yes, it's clearly a redial. It was discussed in this forum some time ago, when I asked if "does it "screams" redial?" At the beginning I felt a little bit sad when I heard "It's awful", "It's on the interesting side of ridiculous"... But all of us know that there are much worst redials... But today I understand those answers and I even laugh about them. And that is because they are right in the collector's point of view. But i'm not a collector. I'm ok with this redial because the original was in very bad shape. And it belonged to a family member already passed away. That value can not me measured.
