Jeff, that dial is a work of art. Beautiful stuff.

Yes its a really nice watch. I bought it about a year ago for wearing to work. I am an Analyst at T-Mobile and its nice having a 24hr dial for looking at system times

I love the dial!

Here are a couple of mine. Seth Thomas,model 5,17 jewel 2 tone movement.

And Hamilton 950 Elinvar

Just thought I would add a better picture of my dial... the glamor shot did not show it that well

I have this beauty at auction right now

This Rockford 18s 1919 vintage 17J Lever set RR adjusted in a Canadian A.W.Co. "Fortune" case with a dial....

Are you sure of that date, David? I thought Rockford closed its doors in 1915.

Regards! Mark

Sorry, 1910. I corrected it. Thick fingers typing.

Ah, that makes sense! Thanks!

The only reason I even noticed it is because of all my 'Rockford' activity in the last couple weeks.

Regards! Mark

Here is my latest Canadian Dial . Going on my BWR .Its still in the mail and ill post a pic of it after I get it installed . Its my first Busy Dial and have wanted one for years . Or should I put this on my 1899 18s Father Time ? Mike

Here is my 18s, 21J, Bunn Special.

And here is the actual CPR (not original case).

Here is a Canadian watch I acquired recently. It is a 21 jewel Bunn Special 60 HOUR Type IIIA with a very nice Canadian dial. It is also encased in a Canadian made case making it totally appropriate for use on the Canadian Railways.

Although this is a Swiss watch, I think its unusual dial can be defined as "Canadian style".

The Canadian dial on a Waltham 645

As promised my 17j BWR with Dial and hands installed . What do you think ?

Hi all, this is my first post. This is my 1892 model Waltham CPR, one of a run of only 100, only CPR made for a hunting case, although this one is in an open face case of around the same period.

Hope you like it, Rhoda

and just for fun, here is the movement

Here is a Elgin Private label 18s for on an Elgin grade 343

Here is an unusual Elgin 16s metal dial low light dial that is on an Elgin grade 342.

I just noted this forum and think it should be revamped and restarted.
Here is a pic of my latest Gr. 349 with an Metal replacement dial, unfortunately someone put a Waltham second hand on it, which will be changed shortly.

and the movement

Bill, on restarting this thread, I completely agree. It is very easy to fall in love with these dials.
We have at least two available right now in our members only on line auctions.

Above is the live link. What better time to join so that if you are not a member you may join now and participate to own one of thse beauties with the Canadian dials.

Here's one that I just bought this morning. It's a running Hamilton 992 dated from 1917 cased in a A.W.C.Co. Canadian made gold filled CASHIER swing-out case in good condition. The double sunk dial has two hairlines but is in good condition otherwise. It's obviously missing the bow, crystal, second hand and most of the hour hand. The stem is round for some reason and will also need replacing. It should be fun gathering the correct parts and should look really great when completed.

It's me again, here is my latest acquisition and what I consider to be quite a rare bird :a Zenith RR56. About 1700 were produced in 1956 for the Canadian Railways

And here is a 1911 992 model 1, in a Fortune case.

Peter, nice watch , I really like the 992's, unfortunately I have no Cdn RR dials on them as yet although I have a couple of them.
I really have to show my latest Cdn RR dial on my Hamilton Ball 999B.
