Vey nice case there Stephanie.Have you noticed often times the buildings are all of a similar style.My brother,s preachers watch has similar buildings on the case also.I think i have a dial with similar buildings too.
What is the movement like in this watch?
Sorry Steph i see the movement now, i didn,t wait for it to load all the way before i posted.
I wonder about the star and the moon on the movement, what do they signify?

Thanks Kevin.
To see the watch in person is even more breathtaking!
I've not seen a watch with buildings or mountains etched as this. The etching of the horse is intricately done, and so unique. A well deserved spot in "Timekeepers Gallery".

Not sure what star and crescent signify.

oh sorry, both,.. maybe. I think the similarity is more like Kevins though. I´m quite sad I don´t have it in my collection anymore.
