In Response To: (Message Deleted by Poster) ()

Thanks again to Brandon for pointing out that the linked photo above is actually the same watch. I had no idea, and had assumed that it was different because of the spots around "bivouac" that are obviously not on the one that I am selling. They must have been cleaned off at some point, though not by me.

I apologize for the confusion!

So, there is a question of the originality of the second hand, given that it differs from the subsequent ones used. I am not certain about the answer. Given that the crown and bezel are different, it is possible that the original second hand also differed. But I do not know whether or not this was the case.

Any expert opinions would be welcomed.

Thanks very much.

Tony C.
