Lo' Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I have been lucky enough to bump on this little (34mm) gentleman@RWI.Gen case, caseback, bezel, tube (not sure about the crown).Stunning gen dial which must have been sunburst gray at some point, then got this amazing patina.Rep hands and rivet bracelet.ETA 2824-2 movement from an Hamilton donor.Keeps excellent time (+ 8s/day), runs strong, crown operates smoothly.Oddly enough this thing has got such a presence on the wrist that it tricks the eye into perceiving it as bigger than it is, something that would not happen with my former 6106 (now gracing wifey's wrist, and no it's not her wrist on the picture ).

Lo' Posted December 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Thanks, will do! One or two things I forgot to mention:Dwo with open 6 and 9 is rep but looks quite good to my untrained eye.As I have mentioned earlier the case is gen. Serial number and caseback reference place the little critter's birth in 1969 4th quarter.Hands are far from perfect since the lume area is a tad too narrow as often is with rep hands. Height though is ok, since second and hour hand touch an hair over the markers as per gen.Thanks for advising about the crown being gen by the way!
