Sorry been unable to upload pics here.

It's on my IG anyway.

Well...it's not 100% completed yet, one endlink is missing. A friend of mine is sourcing it for me and should come to me next week.

ONce again, thanks for all the guidance here^^

Congratulations- nice choice!

Looks like a nice one. Post a pic on the bracelet once you get it sorted out.

If you're going to have a watch you can't tell the time on, I think this is a good option.

How about a Pre Carrera 2447?

Thanks! For some reason, I actually have no issue with readability, maybe just because it's still honeymoon period! And indeed, it's a very cool watch and I should expect to have my 380 endlinks in a week or two.

Carrera and Enicar were on my list too, but couldn't find it (I mean I had to source it from overseas and pay custom duty/shipping etc etc). Out of my surprise, as soon as I made a post in my local FB group, a small town pawnshop owner pmed me with this 7159! 2 days later it arrived my doorstep!

But yah... I wouldn't mind either a Carrera or Enicar Jim Clar. Anyway my next hunt would be a Minerva 13-20.

Excellent. Your eyesight must be better than mine...

Just FYI, my 7159 is on a C+I USA rivet bracelet with non-numbered end links, which I believe is original to the watch. These watches would have come with a variety of different bracelets over the years, though, so there are a number of correct combinations.

2447 all day, that is a watch I have been looking for myself. It’s just about perfect
