Those are beauties!  I like how he didnt straighten the lug on the second one himself.  He knows that with a base metal case like that, the lug being bent that severely means it will likely snap off when you try to straighten it.

Not sure on this, but I've never seen this case before.

Maybe not? Tough call. Looks like a Tank band, but not at 19 MM. That is a Zodiac Swiss clasp for 1963. No idea which watch it could have come on, maybe a chrono? All guesses mind you.

Then look at "My Watches".  ;)  That is a 1950's model. One nice thing about having access to the catalogs is that you can research this very sort of thing and sometime jump on a real steal.

Wow, you have this one Butch? I've been through your collection photos a few times and don't recall seeing it.
I thought the back looked strange too since there is no writing on it.
Point taken ;)
