This stainless steel reference 6284
is a charming example and was
manufactured in 1953 and is confirmed
by the two 2.53 stamped inside of
the case back. The watch is further
distinguished with its honeycombed
dial that has aged evenly and gives the
watch a very charismatic look. The dial
is further highlighted with applied fanform numerals and black graphics.
