Solid gold - very nice! Thanks for sharing. My best guess at this point is a President variant.  It appears to be a solid gold version of this watch  with a customized dial.

Also leaning towards the Sherwood model. Would need to know if the movement has 21-jewels.

Could Enzo Ferrari himself have worn this very watch? Could he have gifted it the series champion of 1958, his driver Mike Hawthorn. OR could it have been on the wrist of Ferrari driver Phil Hill (an American). SO MANY possibilities.....Forza Ferrari

Oh - Pending confirmation of jewel  count I'll agree to Sherwood

Sherwood for me also.  Pending jewel count. If only this one could talk.  Amazing piece.
