Those lugs look ridiculous without a strap attached. Ha!

Mike, you might find those lugs slightly bent when this one arrives, they don't look quite right.

Interesting the ad states 10k rose gold.  Is this the first ad I've seen that's not 14k for rose gold? I think so.

Just checked my 1945 example in this same style, and the inside case back says '14K rgp'.

Looks like the ad got it wrong.

Keeps great time, although it looks a bit beat up. Now to track down a sweep hand.
