2nd Generation Gallet Flying Officer. Head only.
Year: I believe circa 1950's.
Case: Unpolished and sharp. 35mm not incl. crown. Wears larger than 35mm would suggest.
Dial: Original silver, not refinished. There is some radium burn on the dial between 7 & 8 near the centre and a few "dots" but otherwise fairly even patina.
Hands: Original blued. Some lume missing on the minute hand.
Movement: modified Venus 150. Service history unknown. Keeps good time and chrono resets to 0 but would recommend a service either way.
Bezel: Original. Paint is fading from some of the numbers.
Crown & Pushers: I believe the pushers to be original. I'm uncertain of the crown. If I had to guess I'd say the crown is not original. Either way, the crown likely needs to be replaced. It is starting to come loose.
Price: hard to find what market would be for one of these as there aren't a lot of examples I can find. I'm going to price it at CAD$3,000 shipped and insured (from Canada) with Fedex/Parcelpro and go from there. PayPal ok but +4%.
That's all I can think of. PM me if you have questions. Thanks for looking. These are all the photos I could readily find but can take more if necessary.
