Hi :lingsrock: enthusiasts !
This 2111 Chrono-Matic looks in reasonable condition, but I am intrigated by the AOPA dial .
The description is approximative - this version appeared in 1969 and not 1967 , it is described as unpolished , and 10 lines further it has been polished?
AOPA white logo is period correct, but it is quite easy to stamp it in order to pimp the watch .
What is the truth?

Seen these with AOPA dials before so that doesn't bother me.

So, good for Andy + good for Fred => 100% sound for me now ... I do like those 2111 in silver/blue dial - not in black silver . It will be my next project after the Pult :drool:

yes, I can understand that, Phil. LOVE the 2111 silver/blues, though frankly prefer the dial without the AOPA logo.

edit: proven wrong one hour after I claim to never have seen a black AOPA 2111
