The dial is by far the most important aspect - looks great!

Be on the look-out for an original, slimmer crown. It does wonders for the .012 case shape

 

How about this DS. The case is nice in my opinion, the dial is in terrible shape but all in all i really like the look of it.
For some strange reason i like the look of the well aged Certina DS dials.

 

A recent acquisition of mine

 

Any chance you know why the DS dial age so nicely,
Beautiful watch

 

Thanks! I have no clue to why my particular example looks the way it does. But in general, why some develop discoloration defects, most certainly has to do with paint not UV-resistant enough over time.

 

Arrived today...

 

Sharp

 

Very interesting color on both of those examples. One looks like a pecan shell, the other looks like motor oil...cool!

 

The dial deteriorated so much it became something else - I like a lot.
