I haven't posted in a while, but just got this, so: NOS older model, from before they stared making everything in huge tonneau cases with hard to read exploding dials! :D Diameter about 37-38mm Valjoux 7750 Hard to tell from the pic, but the hands are deep blued steel. The dial is a true manly copper color-- not whimpy "salmon" :P Attachment: D&S chrono 01 sm_post.JPG (Downloaded 80 times) |

Best of all, my the movement has been engraved with my initials: D.S.!!!! smile8.gif :P NOT! With all the skeletonization (is that a word?) and hand engraving, I can't tell if this is a 25 or 17 jewel Valjoux 7750-- anyone have a clue?
