Hello Darwin,
: I've got the feeling that both the central seconds chrono hand and
: sub-register ones were swapped at one point.
Me, too, at least for a while :-)
: I have never seen a
: blue dial Compax with different hands. All of the ones I've seen
: have always looked like the ones in the pictures.
Here is another picture showing the two blue variants, the upper blue-on-silver with thin needles and chrono second hand (which exactly equals mine):
: Would you mind sharing the first 3 digits of the serial number?
I'm the second owner of the watch, no documents. I don't want to remove the sticker in order to uncover the numbers.
I would like to learn more about these variants of the hands. Was there a transition from one execution to the other, or were they used both simultaneously? For instance, my AeroCompax 24h has the lumed needles, but there are others with thin needles.
Kind regards,
Mick
