Watch Description

I picked this up cheap off of Ebay this week.  It is marked N3 on the Case back and Movement.   I believe it to be a 1973 Jetstar.  It currently is running but the day date function is not functioning properly.  Tried to fix it myself and a spring went flying......bummer.  I polished the crystal and case and have it looking great.  Just need to send it in to a professional for service.  There are some bumps on the dial.  it is yellow gold plated with a gold brushed dial.  Inside the case back it is blank except for a printed number 3340.

Here is the exact model.  It clearly states Gold tone case with Gold dial and the shape is exact. It is different than the previous ad which says gold case and champagne dial.   It is listed as a Jetstar B.  It is from a The Kokomo Tribune (Kokomo, Howard, Indiana) · 18 Dec 1974, Wed
