Justasgood Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 All hands are gilt, case bevels are as they left the factory, keeping time but losing 1min/day(Hey, it was only serviced once in the 70's) and it is certainly an underline dial. I feel honored having only held this beauty.....I couldn't imagine calling it my own........o.k., I can imagine that
JoJo35 Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 Very nice pictures Justasgood, thanks for sharing. Underlines are nice. This reminds me of a watch I bought last summer. I was in search of a 1560 movement for a project, so I picked up a two-tone 1005 off ebay. After the watch arrived, I took a quick look at the movement to confirm it was indeed a 1560, and then placed it on top of my parts box where it sat for months. I picked up the watch one day when I was cleaning up my bench, and took a better look at the dial..... What was that I saw???? Yes, you guessed it, the watch I bought for parts was after all a 100% original and genuine "underline" dialed 1005!!!!! A classic gentleman's watch, it now resides in my watch box alongside my other prized catches. I'll take some pics when I have some extra time and post up. JJ
