Hello, The seller tells me it has only one owner. (Which is propably to good to be true) Anyone with some comments. On one picture you see that there is a bit space between the dail and the sliderule. Is that just age, or a new sliderule? Any other comments, more then welcome. Best regards, Ewoud |

I'm not sure that sliderule is original. it might be, but the printing looks very dark. The hands have been clearly re-lumed by an unsympathetic watchmaker. Pusher caps aren't original. and you've lost all the luminescent material from the dial of course. That's all I can see. |

hands repainted/relumed, watch is 1959 to 1962, sliderule printing is "soft", could be a (decent quality) replacement, dial is mediocre at best, pusher caps r4eplaced. not a stellar piece... |
