I think you certain picked up a bargain

Given the rarity of your watch, and the stunningly beautiful dial. It is certainly on a par with the other triple calendars of that era, and at a mighty attractive price. What a find!
I am close to considering buying two very fine examples of triple calendar chrono moon phases from 1955, one from Gubelin, and one from Doxa, both with Valjoux 88's, but they are pricey !
Once again, congratulations on your HD.

I don't know anything about them but the example you posted looks very nice (apart from the unnecessary 'regulateur' on the dial! Argh!). Do you know how they're positioning the brand?
No idea

I really have done a bargain and the cost was low, comparatively. Now it has been serviced at a cost of SEK 2,800 (400 U.S. dollars) and now it works perfectly. I've seen a couple of these for sale after I bought mine, but these have not been in the same ...
Totally agree

A great layout, and nice sunburst dial. The only issue perhaps is that from a distance, the logo looks like Harley Davidson ! Dean
