Been trying to find this one for a long, long time.
Had a couple of near misses.
But the waiting definitely makes it more sweet.
Jeff, if you want to use the photos I would be delighted to take and send more.
This watch was described as ex-Israel Defence Forces, and has a M-number serial on the back. Seller was in Israel. I can't really confirm or deny whether it really is ex-IDF, but if anyone has any info, I'd be interested to hear.
In any case, it's a great watch and I really love wearing it. Just need another few years to find a bracelet.... might be even harder to find.
The effect of the different greens of the PVD, dial and bezel looks really cool and is very harder to capture in a photo. Tried to capture it here (any pretty much failed):
