Just purchased another wgf Ross from Bryan Girouard and am planning an interesting dial swap when it arrives. I am going to trade dials between it and a coral version with rhodium numbers and hands. Any comments? (The photos were originally taken by Bryan and I've done some cutting & pasting.) | |||

Thomas, Why do you want to swap dials? | |||
|
The contrast between the pink dial and the white gold case should look great. I already have the normal white gold version with the two-tone gilt dial. I also think a black dial would also look very nice in a white case. | ||||
|
It would look great either way but I would say you'll pick up bonus points if the original dial is on the watch. The Hamilton people will know too (very studious group). -Cort | ||||

Thomas, Knowing that you have at least 3 different variations of the Ross makes me feel MUCH better about my 7 variations of the Illinois Marquis. I look forward to seeing a photo of your whole Ross "family" once you locate a black dial! Problem, what problem? ![]() Good luck! Rick | ||||

Looking at this thread, prompted me to pull out a WW that I got in a junk box many years ago (back when Hamiltons were found in junk boxes). Is this watch a Ross? ![]() | ||||
|
Yes. It is the most common version - ygf case with white applied gold numeral dial. It would look even better with a black leather band. | ||||
|
Thank you Thomas. I just might dig out a nice leather strap and put on it. Tom | ||||
