Hi,
found this beauty in a shop for second hand watches here in Athens. Is it valuable?? Is it rare? Can you give some more infos about it?? (I know only 1960 cal.89) How can be sure that is authentic? What should I look for

Sorry --as you may know I was on holiday when this was posted.
What's to say? From the photo it looks authentic. Not many Cal. 89s were faked, except for Mark 11s, but a movement photo usually helps. Condition looks very good here. The one issue with these watches is whether the dial is original --from this one photo, it looks so to me, but a closer photos, especially of the script, might help.
It's a nice watch, without an uncommon design. If you like the size (small by today's standards, which is not automatically bad) and the condition is goodf, and the price is right, there's no reason not to like it.
