Ciao Fabrizio,
I completely agree, the re-edition is almost as beautiful as the original from the sixties. Congratulations on a very nice example.
Actually I thought that the dials were more or less identical, except for the missing word "Carrera". But comparing them side by side, it shows that the numbers of the decimal scale are much smaller on the re-edition, and the blue color is a bit lighter. And of course the sub-dials of the Lemania movement sit closer to each other than the ones of the Valjoux 72.
Regards, Robert
