How does this dial look?
Thank you all in advance for your time.
I think the printing looks good but I’ve been fooled before… Also the coronet is not what I’m used to but what do you experts think? Please and thank you! |

I'll just focus on the coronet. Because the acrylic crystal has likely been buffed to remove a scratch or scratches it is causing some diffusion.
So the base of the coronet is either malformed or the crystal is giving that impression. Are you thinking of bidding or buying? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thank you for the response! I believe the crystal is giving that impression.

I truly believe it’s original, just a bit of an uncommon reference.
Just looking for opinions :) Thanks again |

Thanks! I do really love it. It’s funny, it’s serial is 789XXX which is roughly ‘51 or ‘52 but then I have an early AirKing (‘62) which has a serial of 773XXX. They have almost the same range of S/N but are 10 years apart, because of the reset. Just really strange to see.

Hi all,
Further question regarding the originally posted precision model please… Is this a 1210 or 710 movement? Thanks in advance! |

Ah figured it out -710 I’m pretty sure.
I see a small copper / gold colored ring around that balance jewel. I suppose that’s early shock protection? Or is it not shock protected at all? … hmm |

Dial, hands and the movement all look original and correct to me.
