: Hi Chris - you have found some amazing watches lately and I think
: this is the best of all. I thought it was impossible to find one
: but you just proved me wrong.
: The Fab. Swiss on the dial is not uncommon and features on a random
: selection of mainly 1960's models.

: It may have been a requirement to meet a certain country's import
: laws but that is a guess.
: I'm sure someone on here knows. Regardless, the dial and watch are
: correct and a fantastic addition to your or any collection.
