Canadian dial. That dial is unusual in that the numeral 24 has been replaced by a 0. To the best of my understanding, that dial was used primarily by the CNR (Canadian National Railway), and was used only for a short period of time. IIRC, I have only seen one of these before. Otherwise a stock 218 Railroader. Good to see.

Where / what is the Forbidden Zone?

South America. The most dangerous/foolish place to buy vintage watches....all my early watch collecting years I was warned against it...but there are still unicorns in those forests...

...and don't forget cases with diluted precious metal content - that has been the conventional wisdom. But they certainly haven't got the monopoly on those things.

Beater for a travel day.

These 'shoes' were custom ordered for the Rainbow Mango El Primero, but I mis-ordered and got a 22mm; was about to send it back but realized it's perfect for this one:
