I like the one that's on it.
Dave, may I suggest you could use this as the start of a Benrus resource? I am building it up but am distracted by other makes...and others have far greater knowledge than me. I just upload the ones that I add to my own collection....!

Its super easy to use, can upload any pics without having to resize and create as many pages as you need. Just open an account....
The 3061 was a bargain watch before the likes of dinky and the rest made a fuss about them- commonly around the $150-200 mark- then like everything else in this hobby, an "incfluencer" discovered them (which is always amusing as many of us knew what they were all along- a nice looking Benrus that happened to be worn by an actor in a movie) and the market exploded for the 3061, now known as the bullit. What amusing is I will see the silver dialed 3061 pop up periodically, same case, same movment, just a regular dial with silver indices- and those go for around $50.
Asking price of $350 and a Make Offer option. The water damage on the lower right side of the dial is obviously an issue, and there is also a case-back engraving. But if someone is looking for an entry-level collectible, this could be acceptable at the right price. Most likely, it will face up pretty well to the naked eye.

Yup. Same case, same movement, difffernt hands and dial
Oddly the same watch was for sale on Reddit for $825 two months ago.

Interesting one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/274493571777
Very attractive Tissot PR-516 alarm with Bakelite bezel. This is an exceptionally cool watch with double crowns and that bezel is sensational. Seller is in Macedonia but has good feedback and of course eBay protection. Make an offer and see how low will he go.
