Hello Zaf, thank you for your time. I got a general idea from your "Past Prices" (highly recommended to all) but there was nothing very similar and current. This is 18k solid, 18 jewel movement with 5 adjustments. 34 mm diameter without crown and 40 mm lug-tip to lug-tip. Original dial shows some aging (see close up) that is, however, even over the dial. Perhaps '50s from size and design? Runs and winds smoothly. Thank you again, and best regards.       | ||

Probably something around $700-900. I would have gone higher if it had seconds. | ||

Thank you, Zaf. Does the 'pie-pan' dial and 5 adjustment movement add any cachet? Unless I'm mistaken, I'd not seen any other Gubelin examples with the pie-pan dial... I rather like the spartan effect of no second hand sweep or dial, though I can see how it could diminish demand. I confirmed there were other Gubelin examples with no seconds - before taking the plunge. Best, Ben | ||

Looks more like a two tone dial than a pie pan to me! The 5 adjustment is good, it means it's pretty much chronometer grade. | ||

You can see in the 2nd photo from the top -- the dial detail -- that it's pie pan -- that it angles back toward the perimeter, beginning inside the hour marks. |
