It is claiming to be a 760, but the dial looks different to me: http://www.ebay.com/itm/170803233290

Looks like the dial has been refinished, but the rest looks OK - case even has the lug pins intact which is uncommon.

absolutely real, pre-1944. a bit optimistically priced.

Case looks great as well, very similar to the 784/785 with the beveled lugs

what type of pins do you need to attach a strap ?
do they have a common / commercial name so I can do a search on Ebay ?

think Roff is referring to these mounting pins on the lugs that do tend to break, all preserved on this one,
they need "female" spring bars, am sure you have several of these:
