Hi there,

just a quick one here ... I was offered this beauty ...

It is obv. that it had a meh-redial and the crown is not original ...

It seems the movement is of the 449/469/479 family ... (from the ranff archives)

LeCoultre_469.jpg

any thoughts on it - how does the movement look to you guys? ... worth sinking money in it?

all the best
Al

Movement looks well worn, but OK. The case and dial are awful.

I wouldn't put too much into this piece.

I wouldn't put any money into this piece. "Meh" doesn't do that redial justice, it is hideous.
