Sangamo Hand Color?
I am restoring Sangamo movement # 1608408 and need to replace the hands. The hour hand is correct but rusted and the other two are wrong. I've been able to figure out the correct style but should they be blue or wine (plum) colored?

Thank you,

Hi Richard,

That is the Getty Model 5 which uses plum colored hands.

If you should need an image of a known to be correct set we can supply that.

Lindell,

Thank you for the quick response. I was able to find a correct example on a post here that matches my dial but wasn't sure what color the hands are. Now I'm going to a watch mart today hoping to find the plum hands.
