case 14kt gold shock resistant self winding water proof anti magnetic Band 10k G.F. TOP CAPS 62 stainless steel bottom CAPS SPEIDEL PAT. 2.689.450 This was my father's. He purchased it for $600 at Kay Jewelers in the early 1960's. It keeps perfect time. Now its mine after all these years. Confirmed it was $600 in 1962. All help identifing it is greatly appreciated.
If you look at the late 50's and early 60's BB's, both in the ad database and watch database, one thing that they all have in common is the Diamond dial and 23 Jewels up to the 1962 30J ad.
The ads that Will shows could be a generic description of the Beau, just not named like we see on many catalog ads.
I would vote for a 2 tick BB, unknown variant.

Not the same, but a 1960 BB showing off its bling.
