I've never seen one before, but i can see where it is placed in the Dynamic range. Possibly one of the last models as tastes changed away from the Oval 'space age' models back towards more conventional shaped watches. Enjoy it and dont make it a stranger ...
Thanks Graham
I have to admit that until I saw it in the auction catalog I had never seen one either. That is part of what drew me to it. It wasn't until after I had purchased it that I started researching it a bit on the internet. I managed to find pictures of a coupl...

..only easy to find place I've found for authentic new bracelets for vintages. You might try our Australian source (think SM300), as he seems to get around... Other than that, It's trying to find an old one for sale.
I want one of those!
