·The extract will confirm the reference, but not specifically the date stamped in the caseback. It will also show the date the watch was delivered and where it was delivered to.
So it will say 105.012, but won't specify -65 or -66.
I'd accept that your watch is fine though. I'd say the chances of it being frankened are very slim.
Yes I'm certain that's the case. My Dad had the watch way back when I was kid in the late 60's and early 70's. The red box with the papers was always on the bedside table and I can't remember him ever talking about replacing the mechanism. That would have been a big deal in our family.
Thankyou for taking the time to add your thoughts.
