I am afraid I do not know much about this watch. I have done a dial refinish and that is of the extent of the restoration. I would love to know more. This model does have the "crystal frame insert" that helps hold the crystal in. It is a daily wearer for me as I wear my Quadrons!

Nice!

All I know is based on hard work & writing by others. I can only aspire to augment this body of knowledge. If I am wrong it is because of my own failings. -me
