    The movement shows it is a Cal 601. The age is correct.

    Hard to make out the reference number on the back but either 135.0020 or 135.0010.


    Hard to make out you caseback, but checked your auction. Definitely a 135.0010. The seller clearly states it is a 601.

    thank you for the feedback. i guess my concern was when i plugged in the serial number 135.0010 it pulled up a international collection date of 1962 but is listed as a 1965.

    The data base is quite incomplete and not very detailed.

    This is the date the watch was introduced and does not relate to actual production dates.

    Did this also come with non-luminous hands and markers as like in the photo?

    Yes, there were many, many different dial variations offered on these watches, including the one in question.
