That is a fascinating reference, the 9034. With a lot of different dials, in a 34, 5 mm steel  case, from 1967 to 1976. 


Here is the moon dot, also called Playboy, because it was featured in the review, which came in different dial variations:

Here along with another dial variation, the so called " Roulette " or " Flag ".

Best,

Nicolas
