It's a nice vintage 10kt precision from the 40's in guessing. Nice little score, not a watch that's seen all too often. The 31 world records helps date it but I can't remember when it started and when they changed it.

If you like it then 900 quid is fine. The dial looks all original, and if it keeps good time, then I'd be happy with that.

That might give you something to work with regarding provenance or age, if there's a date and an unusual/identifiable name on there. Otherwise, watches like this (older, smaller, non-oyster) are not really collectible. On another day you might have paid half that price for it if you got lucky on ebay, or a couple of hundred more.
