Here are the pictures and information that I have: Outside Case: 895349 Inside Case: Modele Depose Acier Inoxydable LeCoultre Swiss 1966 Serial Number:1531929 I can't see the caliber - Any idea? Would you recommend a dial refinish, or try to find a NOS dial? It seems to be running very well, but it's too soon to tell on accuracy. Would you be able to estimate a value in its current condition? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Evan Morgan    | ||

Hi. It would be unlikely to find a NOS dial, so a refinish is your best bet. I do not know wnayhting about the model, but the case reference, if it follows the pattern of other watches, would be "1966". This was made in the mid 1960s. | ||

Zaf - Thanks for the info. I figured that a re-dial was the best bet. What has been your experience with refinishing. I've seen varying results. Any idea what a decent job would cost? Please feel free to e-mail, if you prefer. Thanks again, Evan | ||

The movement is cal. 819. 1966 is the reference number - found it in a `65 catalog. Came with different dial layout options. Was availabe in steel, yellow-, red- and white gold. Also plaque with steel back. | ||
