I was cruising our favorite auction site today and picked up this 7006-8059 for the list price (no one else bid) of $25 plus S+H.

I was really taken by the dial with its subtle orange 6/9/12 markers and more so after I looked up more pictures on google. If I'm not mistaken, the crystal is acrylic so it should polish nicely. One never knows with these gambles!

Oh, the other thing I found very interesting is that it comes on a vintage Tissot bracelet (not sure which model it will fit) but I figured that was darn near worth the price of admission alone as vintage Swiss 19mm bracelets seem to be well-liked.

I will post pics in October when I pick her up in the USA.

Gee, it won't take much to make that one shine. Great colours. Good score!

Great find. I love the 7006's. Not many have the crown at 3o'clock, either.

Dial looks great. If the crystal polishes out you have a real winner. If not the replacements are cheap.

Remember the date sets by traditional crown quick set but the day changes by pushing the crown IN.

Congrats!

That is a real beauty! Good luck with it and post some more pics once you have it

Thanks for the instructions on the day/date changing...definitely something I would not have figured out in the beginning! Thanks again...
