Ok, so back to my question. Look very close at that minute hand. The style is different than that of the one JackW referred to. This minute hand was an after market add on, as I believe, the original was lost. The point on this minute hand is much more different than what I have on my other Gruens. JackW sent me a correct minute hand a few months back, and methinks that is what is supposed to be on here. (Although Skirby posted one of these with a degraded lume/dial issue.) Compare the two.........I'm not going nuts, am I? Also, was this supposed to be a 411c movement, or a plain 411?



People you thought were your best friends will stab you in the back to your face!

Love them anyway.
