Wow, and it still attracted a nice slice of wedge for the winning bid.

Interesting way of looking at it. Amateurish dial refinishing is not a recent development, because these people existed then as they do now, and the corollary is; they probably will do in the future too. Must admit, I have never looked at it that way before. Good point Fred.
