    Hi there,

    I must admit that this one threw me a little off ... I am not even sure if this is VINTAGE or CONTEMPORARY ...
    proabably 1970ies (wild ass guess)

    anybody shed any light on this watch for me? ... love the - what looks like a tapestry - dial ...

    as always - any input highly appreciated.

    cheers, Al

    here are a couple with automatic in minuscular ... looks like the same font - but seems to be a "newer" model

    the ones pictured are mostly from the late 60ies / early 70ies

    any input?

    These with the lower case automatic typically have a version of the ultra thin caliber 710/711 movements.

    Mid 1960s to mid 70s.

    Could be a ref 161.032.
