Really nice Gene. I finally acquired the same movement but in a mainliner case. Yours looks nice and mine has been recased but then cases do wear out.

I posted in that topic a week or so ago to add 2868592 a 23j model 9 to the database my parents bought that for me. Its my most prized watch i have always wanted a SS and for my parents to get me my first one is the bee's knees.

I will take some pictures tonight my man. I do not have a computer anymore just a droid razr smartphone. Well at least it has a great camera and internet. I got my love of watches and guns from my dad he is my best friend. Your SS is from the last run of 23j true bridge, and mine is from the first run of false bridge that's cool if you ask me. To bad they aren't diamond endstone models. I am just happy to have such a super high grade watch mine runs +2 secs in 24hrs. Not to shabby for a watch that's almost a century old.
