Watch Description

Purchased as a non-runner that ticks. With a shake it will run between 15 seconds and 2 minutes. Hopefully it just needs a service. Single piece case is a front loader. I haven't had it apart, the movement photo is from the seller. Crown is an obvious replacement.

Movement is also date stamped 1965 (M5). A little discoloration on face, otherwise a pretty clean (and unusual) watch.

Interesting that by 1967 it was renamed to the Boulevard.

Ensign "DW" for '65.

I notice the similar Boulevard name pre '65.
