Greg CrockettA rather nice looking Swiss fake, with a grate dial! If it still runs, it is a fine addition to a collection of Swiss Fakes or to compare with a collection of high grade American made watches of this type and era. If you take the movement out of the case, the pillar plate will be brass and rather crude with tool marks and no jewels, as compared with the exposed portions of the movement which are finished in such a manner as to fool the unsuspecting buyer.
Best regards,
Greg
