Re: Silver dial 11630 on ebay in the States?

Manuel

You are correct about the chrono hand, although it has been on this watch i'd bet for some time, but good spot, could not see this on my phone, but on my pc it i revealed...with these very very rare iterations, you have to have some less strict criteria about condition, to just be happy to have one...it is like chronomatic dials and like Autvia 1st execution etc, (or on Rolex on no crown gaurd subs, people own one irrespective of lume/dial condition) to own one is special, so dial degradation or whatever when the chance comes to buy one, it's worth taking.

: Hey Rich,

: I agree with you in most points. But the handset to me is not nice
: in any way. Not evenly faded imho but mottled and filthy. On top
: of that, the lume is broken out. And, please correct me if
: that's not true, the chrono second hand is from a 1153 Carrera.

: Cheers,
: Manuel
