Nice looking specimen, that is from the mid 1970's. I sent you the requested service information this morning.

I've never looked to closely at these.  Didn't realize they displayed the time in two different formats.  These didn't have an orbiting red dot for the seconds?

The 3 disks are printed with different things that the Astrographic and then the crystal has a decal with cut outs to show the disk info. An example is the seconds disk has a ring with 0-60 printed on it. Obviously the hour and minute disks are different for each model and cannot be swapped and still be called original.
