Thoughts on this DD 1803?

Any glaring concerns?

How’s your vision? I’d have trouble reading the time on the first one.

Me too.

These 1803's are plentiful so I wouldn't rush. You want to find one that isn't over polished. So if you're ambivalent I would wait. However, I would definitely get that bracelet if the price is right.

The beauty of these, if in the right hands, polish up beautifully.
