 heres images of the prototype- notice the crudeness of the cut stock strap (it may have been a stock citizen one!)

again this relates to its being a prototype never produced commercially. I am no expert but as far as I am aware there were 4 different dial designs also, one was engraved in brass (painted and lumed), one was a reverse-lume plexi dial, and two other variants. The rubber strap, particularly given how crudely it was cut never appealed to me, but on it seems somehow appropriate. I am looking for a 20mm preV screw-in buckle to see if I will keep it in this configuration.

the watch is a real tool watch and the more crude rubber strap seems somehow right when on....
