Today i found one of my first small crown i bought from a dutch friend years ago.... Haven't seen it in a while and as i like caracter in original dials, this is a nice example of aging. It has a nice craquellé in the laquer of the surface from the dial giving it the Spider look, it's from '58 with still the Swiss radium dial in there. Lot's of Spider dials we see in the first sporties that had white gold suroundings on the indexes but this here is a early 2 lined Sub...
Together with a '58 that has brown vains [difficult to capture this effect..]
Here a a 4 lined spider i got from a nice Italia collector...
And before some grumpy old men start bleating, here a mint 5508 ;- )
