Brushed Finish, but Wrong Pattern
In Response To: Montreal ()


compare the one sold on ebay (three images, shown above), with a correct original (shown below), and you will see why the one on ebay went "cheap". it appears that the polishing / refinishing is following the wrong pattern.

seller also pointed out that this one has the wrong chrono needles.
