Just closed on ebay, and what a nice looking movement.
Curious though, is this a normal dial for this grade?

auction no?
Henry:
Dials with an inner ring of 13-24 hour figures were furnished when requested. Hamilton referred to them as "Canadian Dials" because they were frequently required in Canadian railroad service. However, some U.S. railroads also used 24-hour time designations in their timetables in lieu Am and PM.

Thank you Kent, for responding and the wonderful picture.
I did not bid on it, as the dial had me baffled..... :frown:
