+1 what Fred said... Not an unattractive piece, but this version is common enough to not have to settle if you don't want to. If you like the patina and price is right then go for it. |

Thanks both of you. I don't mind the lume given the age of the watch, was just looking for reassurance from those who have more knowledge than I do! It's one of the better ones I've seen over the last few months. |

If you're seriously considering it, please post clearer photos of the dial, it's hard to tell if there is corrosion in some places or not. |
