Good afternoon, Zaf.

18kt case. Serial # dates to 1949 (Engle). Size is 26mm square, 16mm between lugs. Nifty crystal. I haven't found anything similar for comparison. I'm a bit surprised to find a second hand on this design...

Best -- and thank you.
Ben

Too small to be worth a whole lot. It's almost a ladies size.

Richard has this up on Finer Times for $770 -- and it's 26mm x 28mm

Good morning Zaf,

Though my forearms are certainly not big -- the proportion isn't too bad for a man -- with a square shape, it certainly appears larger than a round piece with the same width...

Best,
Ben
