Note: Openface, not hunting

Curator Response: Thanks for the report. If your dial does not feature a seconds bit, the movement is still a hunting configuration with a special factory dial to allow for an openface orientation.

Note: my watch is open face not hunter

Curator Response: Thanks for the report. I have confirmed the movement is a hunting configuration fitted with a dial that lacks a seconds bit. This allowed Waltham to configure the watch as openface even though the movement is hunting style. The main wheel is perpendicular to the 4th wheel. [eBay #372347667584]
