After finding the all white gold version today I think I've got all three variants of the Lone Eagle IV  !!! =)

 

 

GOLD

TWO-TONED

and now the WHITE GOLD

 

More pictures to come when I get them all together... it will be a bit though as i'm out of town for the entire month of June.

Thanks Nova!  I can only guess the reason no one else has commented is because of shear utter jelousy!!  HAHAH!!

Probably so.  I too am envious of the two-tone model.  I have the other two, but that one has alluded me.  I also don't have the matching bracelets.  So sad.

Those seem to be the hardest to find!  I'm sure you'll snag them eventually.. I've been on the hunt for 2 years for this set!

. . . eluded, that is.  I hate it when the system won't let me edit my posts!

Great set!  ...and those bands.  I wasn't jealous, I just missed the post amongst other excitement....wasn't jealous until now that is.

Should be a nice picture once they all get here.  The only thing bothering me is the gold version's dial isn't the same.  It's more like an earlier 30's dial.  Say like on the LE III. 

EDIT:

After looking, yes I'm positive this is a replacement dial/movement.  It dates from 1939-40.  I'm assuming the original movment/dial es kaput.

I'll have to be on the hunt for the right dial/movement.  Looks like I'm looking for an "O" stamped 17 Jewel, 10 AN.
