Sheesh... nice watch.  Pretty rare.  I've not seen many if any of this model until now.  Super great find man!

I'm good with that Prentice model ID.

Prentice. You naughty boy, you've been using that way back machine again haven't you. Remember what I told you about needing glasses.

Of course John, no magic glasses - nothing I can. Should you also buy :)

Prentice, nice one J.

Where is the full advert, do we have it?

WOW, what a find, Only the second we've seen on this one. Well done Jaroslav.

Stopping to look closely at the advert. Do I see engraving at the top and bottom of the bezel? The "9" side of the bezel appears to be stepped but the "3' side doesn't? I don't think I have a problem with the validity of the ad but I'm a little tentative on it matching the subject watch ( as I am on the other Prentice we have in ther dB)

the advert is very poor, on the sides of the teeth are caused by my rendering of the original image, unfortunately we do not have another advert

this is left view from images of original ebay listing
