Thank you for the quick responses. Yes, the high polish was a concern to me. The areas of dial effacement weren't originally a concern, but do show significant wear. I wanted one with original parts, but maybe this one may not be the one.

Haven't tried on a Monaco as of yet.
I do have a Heuer Calculator which I love. I also am actively looking for a Monaco 1133b.
