Nice Jet Clipper and the case looks original to the watch.

This is one of my favorites.  I'm looking for a gray Python  band or something simular in color and texture.

Update:  I just aquired a gray leather * Bulova band for this.

It's a nice looking watch, but I cannot find a matching ad. It has the characteristics of the various Clipper models, but I don't feel comfortable basing an id on the display box...Unknown model for now.

I don't think this is a Clipper or Jet Clipper either, I've looked through our dB and just can't find anything close. I think during this era there were Jet Clippers (as opposed to plain Clipper) and there's quite a few adverts but nothing showing this model.
