Watch Description

Case is a re-dial and a poor one at that. Bracelet looks to be original to watch and  is marked HADLEY. Watch runs very well and will require one more adjustment to be right on time. Watch has been dis-assembled and cleaned and re-assembled and oiled. Numerals are raissed gilt and watch has no minute or hour track nor a seconds track. Hands are gilt modern.

The most common occurance that happens when someone atempts to 'clean' a Dial is the printed registers come off.

The rear of the Dial shows no evidence of being refinished.

Although not engraved, this has an identical dial to the subject watch.
