As far as we know it was given to a hardworking farmer. Allegedly in Santa Anita. This farmer was selling strawberries on the side of the road one day and out of no where a man came and asked him if he would trade pounds of strawberries for his watch

In all seriousness I have no idea what to call this dial. Looks like mainly sun damage, we had two watchmakers look at it, one suggested some moisture damage as well but couldn't be sure. He said if it was moisture it would've likely corroded the date window chamfers, which this does not have.

That's a wild old dial. Perhaps cracking black gloss cleaned off at some point, I think you can still see the original black just around the very perimeter edge. Interesting find.

Just a gorgeous watch. The print on the dial is so crisp.

Cheers Dave. I agree and like it best on the rivet, but I have so many straps....gotta use them once in a while.
