Picked up another Guide 33. This one may be an early Mk 2. It certainly doesn’t look messed with — other than heavily used, of course. Curious about others’ thoughts on whether the crescent moon 24 hr hand is legit or a later replacement.
My plan is to overhaul it and use it as I find myself loath to use my other, nicer Guides.
Guides are my favourite Enicar, bar none. They are design perfection with lots of interesting interwoven detail but nothing frivolous or decorative. It’s also a watch that somehow looks even better when it has signs of wear. Good thing too as they were a real tool watch that people bought to actually use.
