There are still a few Vintage FFs I am hunting, maybe 3 or 4, and a 3 / 6 / 9 / 12 dial is clearly on the top of my wish list. I am Lucky to have several Milspecs,and one early Fifty Fathoms, but this dial configuration is highly appealing. Clean, neat, p...  

That is a VERY fine example. I hope one finds itself soon in your collection Nicolas. Thank you for sharing. Best Edmond

The Triangle index at 12 o'clock made me think about a 3 Digit SN... But the dial makes me think about something later. Best, Nicolas

is it fine with this kind of crown and bakelite, or is there some replacement over the years ? best S.

Then, I think your dial is a service one. My 2 cents, Nicolas.

I am out of training.. I have some problems to put my pictures in here... but here is an other pic of my beauty of the day.... best Stephan ...  

Great dial, hands and insert Stephan! I bet she looks great on the wrist. Brian

.. And the whole impression to me is , well - - somehow sober, but self- confident appearance The low- key presentation, albeit its core virtues prevail.. Enjoyed again your Sunday share ! Thank you, Best, hs PS: Hmmm.. My friend, :) - in each brand it lo... 

Subs! Ooh yes, I have a huge hunting list! :) Best, my dear friend. Nicolas

Such a nice early example and that dial has such charm. Brian

Hi Nicolas What year do you rate my 3 6 9 12? and would you change the crown if it were yours? Why do you think the dial was changed? I do not know anything about the provenience of this watch. It was bought private . No collectors item. Best Stephan

Do you see the dial is a tad different, especialy the 5 minutes indexes? Here is another pciture, an ad: Same dial. Best, Nicolas ...  

Hi Nicolas thank you for fast answering. do you fix it on the 3kserial number? The second watch from xx-ff is very similar to mine- except the triangel on the bakelite... Maybe only the bakelite wss exchanged??? so many questions on the ffs... best Stepha... 

Can you be more precise on the 3xxx SN? Best, Nicolas

Have a look on my picture center under my avatar. There are many Photos of this watch with the serial number and all detsils. best regards Stephan

Hi Stephan, great watch and very clean! Because your case is a beaded case, the crown looks correct for this case. One interesting note I did observe is the lug holes with the beaded case, something I don't believe I have not seen before. Very interesting... 

Thank you Jon ! I have seen your post before... stunning storry ! Stephan

You have a great watch and some great pictures. Thx for sharing !
