some more very close-up pictures ;-)
Remember also that in the early 60's the printing quality wasn't on the same high standard then today, and it's only a reproduction of the original !
You can see very well a wide white border!

A strong and nice looking watch! Powerful, yet elegant with its 3 / 6 / 9 / 12 dial, its rectangular thin index markers, and its losange bezel, it is a watch to have in a nice FF Collection... Like yours! Thanks for this post, and ofr using this amazingly...
wow

thank you again Claude, very interesting report. The watch on the magazine has a different bezel than yours. The outer metal ring seems much wider than yours and the bakelite inlay seems to be smaller, like on a military version ???? regards Stephan

I don't think so that it is a different bezel. It's not a studio photograph and you can see that the watch is strongly lighted by the sun. I think these are only reflections from the steel borders of the bezel. Also the whole watch and the bezel looks not...
