    Description

    ***********This sale is for the pictured dial only.  No watch or any other parts are included in this sale.***********
    This uber rare vintage 1930/40's Gallet first generation Flight Officer chronograph "SWISS" only stamped exotic dial came out of a watchmaker's estate.
    While it shows age-related degradation and wear
    it has oodles of character and in my humble opinion looks markedly better in person.  Having owned several first generation complete Flight Officer chronograph's there is nothing to suggest to me that this dial is in anything other than original and untouched condition when comparing text, font, spacing and lume composition.  While I don't have a geiger counter the lume, which given the era, the dial's "SWISS" only stamping and its porosity/presentation would suggest that it is radium, no longer glows after being exposed to bright light.
    All pictures were taken in natural light and at various angles, so please study the 12 high magnification pictures carefully as they are part of the description and serve as an accurate representation of the condition of this dial.  And please kindly ask any and all questions you may have prior to buying as this sale is final and no refunds of any kind will be given.
    Expedited and insured shipping along with signature confirmation will be included.  Thanks for looking!
