Hello!

I'm currently researching the late 60s variations of the 806, in particular the ones with bigger subdials. I don't think there are many? In particular, no boxed 10s, right?

I also came across this one which does not look like anything I saw from reputable sources (WatchFred IG photos and Kurt B website):

The subdials are eating into the markers and the Swiss Made script... Fake, service dial or uncommon variant?

Fine but potentially a service dial. I think I had one of these once upon a time.

Thanks! It must be already old, with the yellow colored tritium (if it has not been relumed).

The lume looks a bit strange... I'd like to know a bit more on these dials.

Edit: I just saw that the bezel is probably wrong for a late 806 :?:
