Hello all,
I'm hoping for some input about the dial on my SS 6285 from the mid-1950s (serial number 86,XXX). Please see the gold "flecks" on this black dial. Is this what I have seen referred to as a "tropical" dial?
I also have a gold-and steel 6285 with what I am told is a refinished cream dial. I am considering putting this black dial on it, and the refinished dial on the SS watch pictured here, on the assumption that the original black dial with gold flecks will significantly increase the value of the two-tone watch.
I'd appreciate your thoughts!
