Here is a pic of grandpaws watch that was passed down to me. It has m3 on back which is a 1963 and seriel # is 407785. It is anti magnetic and shock resistant, and self winding. I dont think it has ever been serviced, however the number nine is upside down. I would really like to know how that happened because it doesnt look like it has been moved. It appears perfectly aligned. Would like to know what model,how much it cost new, how much its worth now and if a schematic or repair manual is available for it. Thanks E EDIT: Changed to Jet Clipper 2012/07/28
UPSIDEDOWN #9 I am not selling it! I dont know why that was put on my page! I would never sell this watch since it was my grandfathers and was given to me when he died. I would just like to find out what model it is and maybe where it was sold at the time since we don't know where he bought it. The interesting aspect of this watch is the upside down #9. We have now idea how or when this happened. Hard to believe Boluva or a repairman would do this intentionaly.
agreed,
I was about to add that the numerals are applied and do come off, someone in a hurry may have re-installed the 9 upside down or if it's pinned with a single pin the numeral may have spun on its own axis over time?
wish I could explain this one away so easily....
