In Response To: FS: Excelsior Park valj 72 ()

Well..i have had this watch for many years, it came from a Swedish old store thats gone out of bussines
Not much to be found on this..first its NOT a Valj72...the movement is EP40-68
The watch is in like new condition, seems like its never been sold...concern is the hands, the red secondshand
would i guess have had lume on, but i can see trace of it...lume in the square in the top.
The minute/hour hands looks odd...but i found these hands on other EP and Gallet watches...so i really dont know, if they been like
this from the start. The watch must be from the breaking time when Gallet took over EP...i have found the exact same watch with Gallet on
the dial on a Gallet forum...so this was to clarify that the watch was bought like this, and the min/hour hands are my only concern
It would be nice to hear from some expert about this
Best regards/Arne J
