DIAL: THIS MINT CONDITION BLUE BOW-TIE DIAL IS SIMPLY PHENOMENAL. THIS IS THE SAME DIAL DESIGN USED ON ONE OF THE TISSOT SEASTAR MODELS OF THE ERA AND IS CRAZY FUNKY. I LOVE THOSE INTERSECTING TRIANGLES THAT HOUSE THE SUBDIALS. YOU GOTTA DIG ALL THE WEIRD POPS OF COLOR ON THIS DIAL LIKE THOSE RED SEGMENTS ON THE MINUTE TOTALIZER SCALE. THE WHITE SLOPING TACHY SCALE AND THE WHITE SWEEP HAND ADD A NICE CONTRAST TO THIS DIAL. ALL THE LUME PLOTS ARE INTACT AND MATCH NICELY WITH THE SUBTLY AGED TRITIUM ON THE CLEAN STEEL STICK HANDS. THE ORIGINAL BOX ACRYLIC CRYSTAL IS IN MINTY SHAPE AND SHOWS OFF THIS COMPLETELY PSYCHEDELIC FACE PERFECTLY.
