Catalog Seems to be Wrong -- Both are Pasadenas?
In Response To: Re: Catalog Added: 1982 Specialty Watches ()

The 7750-powered Montreal has a distinctive convex-shaped front surface, as shown in the top photo below.

The Pasadenas have a concave (cut inward) front surface, as shown in the bottom photo below.

Seems to me that this catalog is in error, and that the watch shown on the left is what we call a "non-Pasadena Pasadena".

Perhaps we have a reader who has a Montreal, and can post more photos . . . even better, perhaps someone can show the Pasadena and Montreal, side-by-side.
