Hello, I am thinking about buying an other Memovox watch, but I am not sure about the dial's and case back's condition. Normally on these models there is a HPG sign on the central dial, is it possible that it was not used on all of them? Or is it maybe re-painted? And there is no serial number on the back just the 14k gold mark (unfortunately no photo of the other side). Thank you, Zsolt

I think that inner disk would be very difficult to re-paint, so I'm pretty sure it's original. The lack of serial #s, on a US watch, on the back is not unusual either. The watch looks OK to me. |

Thank you for the answer. Do you also know what is the reference number of this model? On the back of the case it's printed: "CASE 3089-916", is that it? I haven't found much info about this model on this forum or elswhere on the internet, I guess it's not a very popular model among collectors, or is it? Br, Zsolt |

The case reference number would appear to be 3089 with a 916 movement. |

Could you maybe recommend someone in the USA who might have a new or replacement plexi/crystal for this watch? Thanks, Zsolt |

Crystals for this model are not available. If it is just scratched it can be polished however. |

Dear Zaf, I have an other question, the "HPG" sign is missing from the dial of this watch. It was originally fixed on the center rotating dial, the 2 small fixing holes can bee seen on the attached photo. Do you have any idea who could maybe restore/replace it somehow? Thanks, Zsolt

I do not sorry, you'll need a donor disk to get the part off it. |
