Yes, it's in amazing cosmetic condition for its age. Winds, sets, has ran flawlessly over the past 24 hrs and kept Time to within +/- one minute. There are no blatently visible service marks inside the Caseback (haven't looked very hard) so I'd assume this estate piece has spent quite some time out of sight. As it is seen is how it was aquired.

Good one, Mark!

 

I actually might not have this ID, yet? Do you have the glass proportions??

P.S.  I currently only have (1) left... I just listed it, on eBay... (9.20.2011)

three ticks confirmed.  ....right down to the ad describing the "pyramid set-back style" two tone step case...and two-tone matching original band!

I just finished up one like it but the symbol on the 10AN is a cresent moon.  A very lovely watch and I will post mine soon.
