I was fortunate enough to be able to pick this beauty up form a fellow IHC member. I wouldn't really have gone after it, but with it being a private label from my home state of Iowa, I had to have it. The dial does have a few light hairlines, but it is gorgeous!

I have seen other 16s examples of the burgess special with the multi-color dials, but I haven't seen any other 18s yet. He had a lot of these multi-color beauties made for his shop!

Nice - Jared...

Do you have a case picked out yet?

Very nice Jared, I love this type of "telephone dial" multicolors.

Very nice Jared
