I've never seen this model watch before - there's more than just a few passing similarities to the Bundeswehr range however the description lists this watch as 39mm wide w/o crown.
The seller is a very credible guy that has posted on this forum in the past & has shown pictures of some truely exotic watches in his collection.
I'm still left with some questions but in many ways they relate to the relationship of this watch to the Bund family cased watches. Is this watch related - i just cant say.
If it is cased in a Bund style case then -
A Bund style case with scew back - has anyone seen this before?
A very jagged outer finish on the bezel - quite unlike those that came with the Heuer/Leonadis/Sinn watches we are familiar with.
All up, its a very attractive & interesting piece.
