Racing/Camera/Watch Post

My buddies at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Archives sent me this photo today. It is from 1966. It shows Dan Gurney in the car with the Nikon F camera/GoPro-of-the-day on his helmet. I loved the photo when I saw it, especially when I saw the wrist with the cool looking Chrono Watch coming into the frame from the right. I got my buddy to scan the old negative and blow up the watch as much as possible and I tried my best to enhance it in Photoshop. Does anyone want to hazard a guess as to the make of the watch?
