ref. 2509 25
Richter says: round case, central second, automatic

dial and caseback look legit, seem to remember this case, though the one on the Dracha link looks different

mid 50s but need serial no. to date it exactly we would need inner caseback pic, movement pic too, these watches should have a Felsa 690 iirc ?

Thanks for the pic help.

I will go to the local dealer and ask him to remove the caseback and take a few pictures of everything.

Felsa 690 is correct, cautious agreement with Fred, though not completely convinced that it started out with quite so many markings on the back.

Thank you for your email.

The caliber is called Felsa 1560. The reference of the model is 2509 25, and the
serial number is 867193.

We don't have other information except what you've already mentioned.

We hope this will help you.

There is also a number 19299K in the cover. What dose that mean?

What would you think this watch is in terms of value?

If I interpreted it correctly its a watchmakers signature , possibly serviced 19-Feb-1999 by 'K' ?
