Thanks for sharing your knowledge! That watch did never See the American Continent though. My Grandpa got it in switzerland after getting his first Job there. He has never been to the US. This watch also has never been touched by anybody. It still had its first mainspring which unfortunatley let down on me.

So what about watches wichtig the clown at 4 o'clock like many seiko divers or heck even the promaster 0040 with the clown at 8 o'clock not even touching your Hand. Almost the same Deal with other recessed crown watches. Imo we should differenciate.

Guess you never stop learning... If only i hat taken Photos of the movement. Even my local watchmaker was cluesless about the movement and he also stated that threre is very little to be known about vintage GPs like this

Thanks for the Info! Yes its manually wound and has what I assume to be 18000 vph. And youre correct: There is no GP Logo on the watch itself. Didn't know you could date it just because of the abscence of the Logo

First of all I love your collection. Nice picks! For your upcoming purchase Id recommend Looking at the Tudor BB Chrono or maybe a Navitimer/ Big Pilot Chrono? Depends on what youre looking for.
