Here is a recent 111 i picked up, the dial has the L SWISS L markings of a very early 111 also has polished crown guard and sandwich dial. both the crown guard and L SWISS L point to a very early model but sandwich dial has me off. So any help is appreciated.

Crown looks to close to the body to me, im thinking it is a pretty early rep, not sure on the version. . .

It looks like a fantasy model to me:

111H case / case back
111F and earlier style polished cg
111F and earlier L SWISS L
111G and later sandwich style dial
111H budget Asian movement

The lume also looks aged, like an older model...definitely a hodge podge watch but nice nonetheless.

trying to figure out which way to mod it to bring it together, looking at a brushed crown guard.

god that AR is killing me. :puke:

ok it should be an E series. They have a polished cg. the E has sausage and not sandwich.

Just get the 111J

Don't spend your money on modding this watch, a nice 111J is less than $200,- and a much better starting point :)
