OVERVIEW COMMENT:
The watch has a very nice look about it, the dial is fantastic, with the dial base starting to go a chocolatey colour, a look that many vintage watch enthusiasts love to collect, and in this good condition & a reasonable size for its era ( small compared to todays modern watches though), it's a watch that will look great on the wrist. Estimated around the late 1950's to 1960's Cold War era.

I try to take good clear, sharp pictures, so you can buy with confidence, that what you see is what you get. Some photos are taken close up to show full detail, imperfections and all, please take into account that the watch is vintage with a fair age to it, and has been a worn watch, and is NOT a new old stock (NOS), so it will never be 'perfect'.... Please use the photos to help in your decision to buy or place a bid. I am not an expert in watches, and the description above is best to my knowledge. The watch as mentioned is in working condition at the time I am listing this, BUT MAY REQUIRE A SERVICE AS LAST SERVICE IS UNKNOWN. ....and with watches of this vintage I cannot place any warranty on the watch.
The watch has not been tested for water resistance, and I would not subject this watch to underwater application.
