I recently purchased a Veritas #270. I've wanted one for quite some time and got a good deal;the only trouble was the BWR dial and "Swissy" hands. I have a perfect DS Monty for this pocket but I'm still searching for the hands-the only pic' I've seen is in "Pocket Watch Discussions" on 12/21/06, page 2. Lindell has a pic' of a #270 with a Santa Fe dial-sweet! But if anyone can give me a lead on those hands I'd be in their debt. I'll add a couple pic's - thanks-

Another-

More-

And the dial-Sorry the pictures are so big,I'll do better next time!

I have a set. I will be sending them to him tomorrow.

Hope they work for you.

Lindell and Aaron, my friends-you guys always have your hands out.Thank you...and Lindell,why is it I can learn to take a pocket watch apart but I have trouble with this "cut and paste" stuff? (Ha-ha-sheesh!) Both of you take care -

Any proceeds from these hands will be paid to the IHC 185 as a donation. Marty if they will work for you please pay the club with PayPal If they are not what you are looking for we will keep trying.
Thanks,
Aaron

You bet Aaron;I think that's a great idea.

Marty,
Sure would love to see the entire movement, it's a real Beauty! Congratulations on a great find.

Sheila-I HOPE this pic' is better...

One more?

Very nice indeed. I'm hoping my Veritas will look that good when I finally get all of it sorted out.

A really great looking watch, and a swing out case to boot!
Marty, their sure are a lot of helpful hands on on IHC185. The knowledge here is awesome!

Lindell:
I can barely recognize this as mine! What a difference! Now this pocket looks like it should-those hands really set off the dial. Beautiful.
My friend,I am in your debt. Thank you.

Wow, what a beauty, great job Lindell...Let me know when you want me to send my entire collection your way for refurbishing

Yes indeedy, IHC185 is the place to be. Hey Tom,what do you have? I'm into Veritas myself...

Hi Marty,

I've got a 21j grade 360 which is currently caseless. When I find a case I'll ship it off for cleaning etc. The hands were bad but I just got some for it so that's one thing done.

Best,
Tom O.

That's a nice one,Tom! Let me know when you get tired of it!
Tom-any chance you have any old,rusty Elgin hands for sale??
