Mike HodgeDial and hands. Too small, but will post real photos when it arrives. 929's are not real easy to find and I do have a suitable HC in Oregon.

Harry J. Hyaduck Sr.Looks real clean Mike. Way to go. I have two. One runs and is in a nice HC. The other has a broken staff and is in an OF case. They look kind of starring without the micro-regulator don't they? They also (too me at least) look like the balance cock swirl pattern doesn't match the swirl pattern of the rest of the movement. But that is the way they are made.
The picture of the dial is a little small though. I had the same problem coping them from Ebay but I did figure out a way to copy a bigger picture but I forgot how.
I have an older brother to this one. Same run of 1000. The one that is broke is in the 27XXX and it has small hands also so your may be correct.
Congratulations.

Jon HartNice one Mike - She looks pretty clean. Is she a runner?
You know those 18s Hamiltons are my weakness.

Mike HodgeYa Thanks. It is supposed to be a running watch. I have a couple of 928's so figured I better get this. I'll contact you about the blued screws Eric.
