I was passed down my grandfather's watch for Christmas this year and have been having some difficulty clearly identifying the year and model. I have been told the model was manufactured in either the late1950s or the early 1960s but as my grandfather died in 1966, no one can produce any other information. The top of the case body is gold platted and the bottom looks like steal. My uncle put a new strap on it but from what I've seen and based on personal opinion, I think the original strap could be of brown leather. If anyone can tell me exactly what model this is, I would really appreciate it.
Also, as I am new to owning a vintage watche, I would appreciate any recommendations on how to care for it, i.e. removing tarnish from case body, polishing the crystal, or how to find a strap closer to the original.
Thanks for any feedback anyone can provide.
