Thanks,
Bill

Thanks Dave and Mike,
I do have the guide but have not yet learned how to use it with any certainty.
But after hearing you two looking up both Non Magnetic and Omega see the resemblance.
I appreciate and value your expertise and wisdom.

Bill, I was looking for some Paillard Non Magnetic info on a nice one I just bought and I saw yours. I have had several paillards in that pattern, 2 gilt and 1 nickle and they were Swiss. I must say they were excellent runners. I now have one that looks like a Longines and has wolf teeth. Definitely a Swiss bar bridge movement and 16 size. Coin silver Fahys case. I always was a sucker for Paillard watches and they always have run well for me.
