My Latest Purchase (Burlington Getty)
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 Smile

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!

I think Illinois should get a design award for the most elaborate design click!

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.
