Footnote
From the original owner, this example retains its original dial and wonderfully faded bezel, additionally the bracelet, an original Ref.7836 with clasp stamped for the 4th quarter of 1971, which would be correct on a watch made circa 1973. Originally purchased using a bonus while working as a consultant in the Middle East, this model has been looked after, worn and enjoyed by only one person from new.
