Ended up having to put a couple crystals in this case, but a small price to pay for a hunter display case. I've also been wanting a Getty Burlington for a while too. To say the least, I killed two birds with one Watch

Hi Jared, Nice Burlington! I recently got one just like it, but mine has a Montgomery dial.I can't quite make out the serial# on yours, mine is 2429485.Mine was recased into an OF case, hope to find a proper case sometime.Those Getty models are pretty nice!They look so different with the invisible crown wheel.Thanks, Ted.

I have one that's exactly the same. The back crystal is a really nice feature. It's a great watch too. Very accurate. I like the metallic quality to the watch's tick. Quite distinctive. Congrats!

The serial number on this one is 2,142,164 so its a little earlier. Definitely another quality grade made by the illinois factory. Watches like this is what make the collecting worthwhile!

Some pictures of mine. They could practically be the same watch. Mine has a hairline by the 7 and some brass showing around the crown, but other than that it's very crisp and clean. I'm always on the lookout for another Burlington to add to my collection. I really like this one. I'd like to land a Bulldog next.
