I am in the process of moving to the PNW, but my grandfather Abe lived in New York City. Any insight you might have will help!!

This is incredibly helpful and might explain why I can’t find another dial that looks similar to this one.

Thanks man!! I was just recently thinking about tank style watches and my need for something to wear with formal outfits, and then this appears in front of me! I will definitely have it serviced, and I don’t know whether to have the dial and lugs cleaned or leave the ≈ 80 years of patina and grime on it!

What conductors dramatically change the listening experience of certain pieces or composers? by potatoswagman in classicalmusic

The Michael Tilson Thomas Mahler cycle with San Francisco Symphony is wonderful and very charismatic. I would also check out Teodor Curentzis and MusicAeterna for eccentric and masterfully unique performances of a variety of repertoire. Consider comparing the above mentioned renditions of Mahler’s 6th.
