pffff where to start :-)

Reference 2005
build in the early to mid 60'ies
later followed by a model with separate small seconds hand on the 9 position
heavily modified 7731 movement
quite rare but are offered regularly , are offered less often than the (for example) all black 806 w/ venus 178 and as they were dive watches I think its really hard to find a mint example

I think thats the cold hard facts ?
