Watch Description

I initially thought this was a "blinged" President or Citizen with a refinished dial and added diamonds. N2 dated case and movement. Royal blue dial with diamonds at 12, 3, and 9 in a white plated case. Much to my satisfaction, I found a single ad in the full ad section under 1972. No mention of this one in 1971 or 1973 linebooks, so I am assuming it's a "one year wonder". It is currently on a black leather band, but I have a navy blue Corfam on order. Running and keeping time.

A first for me and also a first for the database.

Nice match to the Beau Brummell "BA".

You're amassing a nice collection of these diamond models.

Thanks for noticing, Ken. I think this is #40 for diamond dials (and my 450th watch submission)
