I really appreciate all the comments! Thanks, but this isnt exactly the best news:)
I THINK i see what you all are saying about the subdial locations. do you mean that there should be 2 complete squares between the 6oclock and 9 oclock subs on the raised square grid? my 6 oclock sub has a partial square under it and thus cuts off one near the 9 oclock sub. While I cant find this exact model, the current selection of AP does all have 2 squares between these dials.
But i am not seeing the difference in the finish on the metal. That looks accurate to me.
It is a quartz movement. My second hand does go tic tic tic.
So the consensus is against the possibility that this is just a variation of the design (are the subs always in the same place? ) lol I really appreciate this. People on ebay were really of no help at all
Thanks for the welcome! Awesome that i got such a response all ready!
