Watch Description

Bought this one based on a photo that made it look white with no indication of date code and displayed in an apparent 1990's green  Bulova box. Recently serviced. Much to my pleasant surprise, it's yellow gold plate with yellow gilt and black markers with matching gilt/black hands on a textured yellow gilt dial . Snap back case (which I was unable to open) is dated coded "M9'. Band is a  scissor style and marked "Rose 1/40 10K USA". This is a first see for me and also appears to be a first for the database. Listed in Linebook183 as

Thanks, Kathy. This is what I based my bid on. Luckily it was what I suspected and not what it appeared......

Nice pickup. I would have lost money on it being white gold as well.
