Jack MarshFredonia Hands
My early 18s hunting cased Frediona has some really awful mismached hands. I know that actual Fredonia hands would be very hard to find.
My question is this. What hands would look the best ( most like original ) and fit the best ?
I can ream them to fit exactly.

Richard M. JonesJack I have only owned 1 Fredonia but I remember it had light or thin spade hands and I believe they were correct for the watch as the watch was a lower grade watch found in an old house and probably had not seen the light of day for many years.

Jack MarshThanks Deacon, I've been on the computer looking at every Fredonia that I can find. I think Thin Spade is the way to go as well.
The wrong mismatched hands can sure spoil the looks of a great old watch.

Lorne WasylishenThere is a picture of a Fredonia on page 212 of the 2012 Price Guide. It has very light thin spade hands, confirming what Deacon has said.
