Haven't seen a match for this one yet. It's a 1961 model with a one piece 10k RGP case (32.7mm excluding the crown). It has a vertically striped, textured white dial and gold Alpha hands. It has a G-S PHD 30.1mm crystal and a 23 jewel Bulova 10BZC hand wound movement. The lugs are 17.5mm. Please let me know if I missed any details, I'll provide them promptly and thank you!
