I’d really to know when this interview was. The man was active in the 50’s and 60’s. So now BP tells his story?

Blancpain: Not trying to stir up trouble

I have a photo from a collector that shows the bezel on his has the minute markers. I have not seen the back of it. It does have the TR style hands though. He calls it an AM, so I imagine it has the AM back. Either they—AMs—-can have either bezel or his watch is the wrong one. I quietly take my leav

Blancpain: Thanks. Here is my confusion.

I have seen people refer to these as AMs (With the TR style back). There is another for sale right now with an “AM” back but if the back is accurate, then the other parts or most of them are not correct, at least to me. . Do we have two different species?

Blancpain: So can I clarify?

The further work you are referring to on the TR occurred before the contract was let for delivery? Even so it seems the small crown survived. Also, yours also apparently has no case number on the back—otherwise caseback the same as the Navy’s delivered watches. Thanks.

Blancpain: I have never

handled one of these. Is the case back correct for a correct “civilian” watch? Ive seen photos of them on here.
