Accutron 249 works for me too.

The dial looks like a good match to the 249, but the case appears different; subject case is round with a distinct separation of the lugs - the two ads show a more chiseled case with lugs that are smooth into the case. I didn't see any other ads for this watch.

Wow, now that I'm back home looking on the 'big' screen I see what you mean Ken. This case is not a match to the 249 at all, dial is though. Good call.

Back to Accutron (no variant).

Yea I think I see what you mean about case/lug differences.  So I'm back to generic accutron ID too.
I gotta do some cut and paste of pictures and ads to get thigns side by side...
