Dial Details
Dial Type: Double-Sunk dials with a wind indicator are sometimes, erroneously, called "Triple-Sunk."

Hairline fracture between sunk seconds and sunk up-down wind indicator.
Fracture is more pronounced in the photo than it is visually.

The hairline fracture put this Vanguard in my budget range.
Most Vanguard with these features go from $1000 to $2000.
