Watch Description

I have been looking for a NOS 1961 watch for awhile now but hadn't found anything I liked.  So I decided to get this one as it had the original band and is in nice condition and working.  I picked up a correct box and an ad to go with it.

It is 10K rolled gold plate with stainless back and date stamped M1 on both the case and the movement.  The inside of the case is plain.

A couple of ads with the "G" variant.  Assuming "G" is for yellow but can not confirm.

Excellent ad finds.

Thank you Bob!  I always love it when they have an original band : )

'G' was the white gold version. Your watch is the Miss America 'H'. Very nice example!
