I've seen a couple of the military Flightmasters but did not know that they were the same as Railmasters. I've never seen a Peruvian or Canadian model as you describe, just the Pakistani models. Are there a lot or re-finished dials out there, and does anyone know any links that show the correct script, etc., for Railmasters / Flightmasters?

Thanks,

Pat
