Looks like a Sea King variant.

The only match I can find is to the Sea Clipper, ad is from 1967:

Slightly different angle of the short section of the lug where it connects to the case.

Also, is the movement an ANAC and not the ANuC that you posted?

I still need to have the back removed to verify the movement. Then I can update movement.

I think you nailed it Ken. I'm looking at that area of the lug, in the ad they look different at the top of the watch than they do at the bottom don't they?

Tricky to say, could be from the Sea King, Jet Clipper or Sea Clipoer series.

The above advert is the closest I've also found.

Ken's ad looks like a close match to me.  I am ok with a tenative Sea Clipper.
