Hello

I wonder if any member can help. I can been given an opportunity to buy a vintage JLC by a friend of a friend. I have been asked to 'make an offer'.

I understand it was purchased by the owners father just after the war.
Hallmark 9ct.
34mm.
No service record.
| hope the photos show.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Is it missing the sweep seconds?

Also has the dial been repainted?

No second hand. I assumed this was the design.

Dial hasn't been repainted as far as I am aware and can tell.

It's missing the sweep for sure, the movement you are showing is one that has a sweep second.
