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 That dial is unusual in that the numeral 24 has been replaced by a 0.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.

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.
