Description/Comments:
This Swiss made watch from the '60s that has one of the most beautiful and unusual dials I have ever seen!  The crystal is made of ground glass with 9 facets!  The round stainless steel finished case has a gold bezel ring and measures over 1 5/8" in diameter and is 5/16" thick.

Dial:
A beautiful iridescent dark blue that shimmers in the light and is complemented by raised gold colored twin baton hour markers and gold colored hands. There is a 60 seconds/ minutes scale at the very edge of the dial that is marked with white lines in between each of the raised baton hour markers.

The most unusual aspect of this timepiece is the seconds dial above the 6 o’clock position which features a revolving psychedelic disc of interspersed red, green, and blue graded swirls.  This watch screams sixties!
