Note: Dial is double sunk, rest o.k.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. According to period catalog descriptions, the standard Grade 153 was fitted with a single-sunk dial. This grade could have been upgraded by the company prior to the full production run or the dial may have been exchanged by a watchmaker at a customer's request.
