A question for the professionals
Folks,
A question here… I have a 16660 from 1984. I got it from a very reputable place &checked it thoroughly with an independent professional. Everyone determined that all parts are original.. I got a question from a fellow on one of my pics recently that made me wonder… he mentioned that the second’s hand lollipop is extended further than what he knows. I ignored that comment but then a few days later I checked for myself and indeed the lollipop is located further than other 1984 I see online . I am attaching a pic for you to see and give me your take on it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-5i...w?usp=drivesdk https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-G7...w?usp=drivesdk |

Very interesting observation.. I'm far from being an expert or a professional so cannot comment.. but a quick glance on my sub , the lollipop on the seconds is shorter indeed.

The hands have been checked thoroughly since it was a concern of mine (they're a bit lighter even though they start to patina). They're tritium original hands. Thanks |
