Fair comment. I am making some assumptions, but realistic ones. I wil lresearch how to bring out engravings that are wore down. Either way, with everything else, the inside, the case dates, the face, its no older than 1956 as the certification only happened then, and wouldn't be much older than 57 or 58 as I am sure the case stock wasn't 5-10 years deep.
