Hi All

I find this one interesting as I have not seen a Fortune Hunter case before. Are these a uncommon item. All information welcome.

Keith

Case inside

This lid did not photograph very well. The original factory finish is present so I did not want to clean it.

Case back inside

The Dial

Yes I am looking for a nice set of hands including the second hand + a 18 3/16 very flat hunter crystal.

Hi Keith, I might have a crystal for you - I will check when I get home from work tonight. By "very flat" I will figure a 7 or 8 high.
I will email you with my phone number - call me.

Well Keith are you going to leave us Ham lovers hanging

I am going to guess a pendant~set 18sz but it could be an early 16sz with a 4 footed dial

Let us see the motor pleeeeeze

The motor for you Buster.

A early 16sz 17jewel grade 969.

Marc will call you later tonight...

Regards
Keith

Larry Buchan looked this movement up for me back a few days ago.

Very Nice One Keith, Thanks

I really like this one Keith, especially the Canadian 24 hour dial and Canadian Fortune case.

Should clean up pretty well.

Interesting it when through the hands of three different retailers before finding a home in someone's pocket.
