nice one Stephen.

I'd match the watch to the model on the far left of the ad trio at $35, noting the white outer ring of the dial which is now visible in My most recently posted image.

I'd match it to the second from left as it has the raised gold numerals as described in the advert. Others (like the one I have) have printed numerals.
