Same dial as a 110.255 . . . But in an 1158 case with 1158 hands. Hard to tell if it's a replacement dial or if the last 1158s used 110.255 dials at this juncture. It's hard to see how an original 1158 dial could have been damaged in this watch though, it looks in fine condition.
What made me think of the "replacement" secnario is that just a few weeks ago, we saw a nice 1158 CHN, with a scratch across the dial. Probably happened during servicing, rather than during use, but it was a scratch that would have bothered some owners.
My own view is that until someone can establish that the last of the 1158s used this dial, this execution will be "suspect".
Jeff, I'm not sure you mean 110.515 at the end? Those are the gold-plated barrels.
