·So anyway, I got it as described. I really like it and am happy to own it. One thing that shocked me was how small it was. I mean, I new the size...I even put a ruler up to my wrist prior to buying to get the idea. It just "feels" smaller than that I guess. lol It's fine though. It's not an everyday watch for me so I haven't worn it yet, I'll do so when I dress up a bit.
Thanks for the help everyone, it's something I plan to own as long as I'm alive and feel good about it because of your posts.
Couple super-noob questions:
How do I adjust the date? I don't know if you pull the crown out farther than you do to adjust the time, and I don't want to just start tugging on it.
What is a good way to store these watches?

This is not one of the "push-pull" date set watches (cal. 564), it's too early for that. You need to advance the time to about 1am, then go back to 9pm. Repeat as necessary.

Vintage boxes are best:

Make sure to buy some silica gel packages to maintain low humidity, wherever you intend to store your watches.
Enjoy it,
