This was the first watch I purchased from Ebay for $17.75 after shipping from Lexington, Nebraska. It was listed as running and I found that there was a kink in the hairspring and hairsprings are a pain. Luckily I had another watch from a garage sale purchase several years ago that had a bad dial and face and transplanted the entire balance assembly into this watch.
I have seen one other Helbros Invincible with this face, but it had a different set of hands that were thinner. Mine's hands to me looked much better. The case has a 9 stamped between one of the lugs and appears to be gold plated brass with a decent gold plated Speidel band.
