I may have missed it. Is there a dedicated microbrand forum on this site? If not, it could be a welcome addition. Thanks!

Greetings -- A friend gifted this to me, and he can't recall the details of his purchase. So I'd appreciate a sense of what I have here -- the caliber is 265, the serial number dates to 1947. Does the dial look original or is it a redial? Everything here works as it should. What are ideas about its value? Thanks!

Appreciating the unique look and symmetry of the California dial.

Dufrane Mabry and Beaufort Aerotimer are favorites of mine. Show what you've got -- or want -- and if anyone knows the history of this dial or has an iconic model, share it!

Wondering about people's experience with these watches. I find them really appealing, but can't find a lot of user comments. Thanks!
