I guessed by one fuzzy photo what color this was and was pleased it was indeed a white gold plate case with white gold applied numbers and markers on a black dial. This one is the latest case date Craftsman with hooked lugs I have ever seen and also the first of this variant.
I find this variant in the line books in 1957 and 1958. By 1959 it appears to have been dropped from the advertised lineup, but here is one dated 1960 with an L9 movement. Cleaned up the case, polished the crystal, wound it and put it on. After 18 hrs it lost 3 seconds. Ad below from 1958-1959 LineBook BAWDO136 in the 1958 listings.
