It has a 7j. hand wind Swiss movement, 34.5 mm, gold electroplate bezel and stainless back. It has just been cleaned,oiled and regulated and so far keeps great time. It's about as close to NOS as I've seen. I wanted one because I remember my father wearing Walthams when I was a boy.

Isn't it funny how we want to be more like our dads now, but never back then? Boy, I thought I had all the answers when I was 15! I guess the older I get the dumber I get! LOL.

Isn't that the truth, Tom? As in buying more watches than you could wear out in three lifetimes.:?:?:?
