Description/Comments:
Now here is a mod color coordinated '70s design with a cool brush metal gold tone barrel shaped case featuring a centrally located round dial with a handsome blue background color.   The bright red sweeping seconds hand highlights this mod designed watch.

This watch is in excellent cosmetic and running condition.  In fact, it keeps very accurate time.

Case:
The barrel shaped case is a brush finished gold tone metal and measures 1 5/8" across (including the crown) and 1 1/2" (from top to bottom.)  The lugs are grooved within the case allowing the band to fit flush with the edges.  

The back of the case is marked Swiss Made and Base Metal.

Dial:
The round dial is centrally located on the barrel shaped case and features a handsome shade of blue background color.

The dial is marked Lucerne below the 12 o'clock position and Unbreakable Mainspring above the 6 o'clock position.  Swiss Made is marked parallel with the 6 o'clock position.  All lettering is in gold tone.

The Arabic numeral hour markers are raised and are a shiny gold tone color.

The date feature is located at the 3 o'clock position and has red colored Arabic numerals against a white background.

The straight hour and minutes hands are a gold tone in color.  And the straight sweeping seconds hand is a bright red color.

The crystal has a flat surface and is curved around the edges and is raised 3MM above the surface of the case.
