Kevin HoffmanHi Ron are you asking about a solid 14k case ?, if it is south bend are we talking about a panama case ?

For that reason that there are folks holding Polaris movements like Billy, waiting for a 14K South Bend case, of which there were 3 case manufacturers that made these for South Bend and marked them "South Bend", they are scarce and they bring a real premium !! They are scarcer than a "Four Leaf Clover" or a winning Lottery ticket !!

"PANAMA" was their 20 Year Gold Filled case.
"SPECIAL" was another of their 20 Year Gold
Filled cases.
"PILGRIM" was their 25 Year Gold Filled cases.
"PYRAMID" was their PERMANENT Gold Filled cases.
