Vintage with perfect champlevé lettering and dial
It is very difficult to take my eye off this piece. The dial is flawless with raised enamel lettering. So as minimalist as a 570 but still very simple and even more alluring. I am loving it with this slim Gay Freres bracelet.
I have sent t to Michael Young (Bracelet God) for detail inspection and to make the bracelet foolproof. Now I can enjoy this piece on a bracelet with no worries.
I have also asked him to cut a slit opening on the end bar so I can change the strap easily 
For those not familiar with this piece, it is a 3417 first series. You can tell from the raised enamel lettering , Big Sub second dial and also the missing 30th minute. The case side is also different from the second series but not evident in this photo.
