There seems to be two possible Variants  from the 1964 Linebook BAWD0158.  From what I can see there might be a silver and a gold dial variant.  There are two listings Variant D and Variant H.    The ads do not distinguish between these variants.

What page and which linebook is this 'H' listed? I could not find it in the 1964 linebooks.

Actually I believe the H was in a later line book.  Maybe 1966 or 1967.  I can check later this evening when I get home.

No worry, I just thought I missed it for 1964.

I've seen a few models that just simply change variants from one year to the next, but remain the same visually. This could be the case here; depending on the year of the watch would dictate which variant, or perhaps it is driven by the band.

Hmmm, not sure what to make of this?
