Ref 2400 came in so many dial variations . . .

. . . it's hard to say how many exist. I believe they were delivered exclusively to the Swedish agent in the '40s, some of which ended up as service watches for the Swedish military. Ref 2383, incidentally, was identical to ref 2400 but offered to other (

2639 was made in large numbers, with many different dials and different hands also. The 2639 on Chrono24: Suverän 2400 was exclusive for Sweeden, easy to se just look at the back. Best Thomas
