Help with Prince Oysterdate

Hi everyone,

I'm about to pull the trigger on a Prince Oysterdate 74000, looks like an ETA 2824 inside. It's from a trusted seller, but I don't know my way around these all that well. From what I can tell the serial (4xxxxx) puts it at 1964/65. I'm hoping some of you can help me avoid a mistake if I'm missing something obvious!

Here are the pics:

Thanks, friends!

The shield logo dates it to 1969 at the earliest, but looks a bit later to me...maybe late 70s early 80s?

Definately 70s or 80s. You're missing a digit in the serial perhaps
