Good evening this is my first post. I recently came by this one, but I can not find any other dial alike on the web. Has anybody seen one like this? What do you think? thank you very much! |

Thank You Wayne for your quick answer. I am sorry but i am a bit confused. Do you think it is actually a good pick or are you ironic ? |

I too have not seen a ref. 788 with a black dial yet, but I see no reason to doubt the dial authenticity, though I would like to see much better pics to say more about a possible relume, though not recent. Would like to see a pic of caseback and movement, but logo looks correct for an early 1940s dial, as does the "ANTICHOC" at 6. Hands are clearly much, much later replacements. |
