    I purchased this watch in 1986 from a watch dealer in Laguna Beach by the name of Pat Espe. He did incredible work and loved going by his shop often. I particularly loved the copper/pink enamel dial. I would be curious what this watch might be worth. I just recently had it cleaned but neglected to ask for an updated appraisal. The serial number indicates that this watch was originally made in 1954.

      We have a watch that is exactly like yours, if you find any info out on it could you please let me know? How much did you purchase your watch for? And also where were you able to run your serial number threw?

      had no problem running the serial number through. That is how I found out it was made in 1954. I don't remember how much I paid for the watch in in 1986. I bought it from a watch repair man in Laguna Beach, CA by the name of Pat Espe. He restored it to its former glory. Although I did not see it before he had worked on it. I love this watch. It does run fast though- even at its slowest setting. I would love to see a picture of yours. How much and when did you acquire yours?
