Having to "guess" at the foot positions Smile

it does appear to have feet at 14.0-36.4-51.9

So, it appears to be for an 18sz. and model 1, 2, and 4.

Fancy dials would not be appropriate on a RR watch, but would be appropriate on a gentleman's watch. I think anything around the turn of the 20th century would wear it quite well.

Even with the small blemishes, that's a fantastic looking dial.
