<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 3351923, member: 6444"]The problem is that the marriage of the watch movement and case could have happened at any time, even a week before you found it. It's true this this configuration is hardly ever seen, but we hardly ever see a period queen anne table with a plywood top either. It's rare, but for most collectors it would be better restored to period correct configuration. But if this configuration works better for you, that's great.</p><p><br /></p><p>Blooey's case and movement are correct together, because both are open face.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
