A very lovely watch.  In the 1971 Linebook BAWD0177 page 48.  I would suggest a date of 1971 based on the linebook and the serial # without having a movement date code.

Thank you. This is very helpful. I paid less than what this watch sold for new about 20 years ago and thought it was gold filled or plated due to the price. Apparently, I got quite a bargain. The watch is still in really great condition and keeps good time. I bought it because I liked it and still do.

Congratulations on the great deal, the 14k gold braclet coming with it is an added bonus to be sure.  It is a beauty!

Oh yes, that is an odd placement that I didn't catch it there.

Based on inflation; $375 price tag in 1970 is worth $2,717.28 in today's dollars!

So I'm wondering if there is a distinct difference between the 'Christian Dior'  and just plain 'Dior' models?
