    I'm not familiar with that reference.

    Montgomery Dials were on railroad watches. On them there are numerals for all 60 of the minutes (and often all 24 of the hours, too)

    Appreciate the clarification, I wasn't aware that what's they were called.

    I would get one (any) of their models in a heartbeat if they offered them in a smaller case size than 43mm.

    Yup. I spent a bit of time trying them on at last year's SalonQP. Too darned big. It's a dilemma, though. The five-minute markers need high visibility, and that means big.

    I have admired Meistersinger watches for a few years now, and very recently decided to pick one up. Simplicity was the name of the game for me, so the No.1 suited my needs perfectly. I quite like the sunburst dial on this one - sort of a purple/grey colour (sorry, hard to see in my pics).

    These fall into the category of very nice to look at, but I would never wear it. It would not rotate well with my other watches, so I just would not be able to tell time on it to the level I want. Now retired and down to one watch it may work.
    Cheers,

    Tell everyone you saw it on IWL!
