Re: with the "flat" 12/6 and 30/15, I am suspicious

Jeff

I'd agree, and i've seen half a dozen flat number subs, none of which passed close inspection of script...

Rich

: with the "12" and "6" on the hour recorder
: in the same horizontal line as the other numerals, and the same
: for the "30" and "15" on the minute
: recorder, I am suspicious of this one. for a watch with such a
: limited production run, it's difficult to imagine that there
: were actually two executions (or two batches) of dials.

: with most of the previous fakes that have had these
: "flat" / inline numerals, we have had another
: "telltale" . . . a red numeral on the date disc or the
: wrong finish on the PVD. I don't see a second telltale here, but
: perhaps that's only because we are looking at such small photos.
