It looks great, wonderful simple dial with the bulletproof caliber 1520 for power!

Puzzled though to see no "Precision' script on the lower portion of the dial, with input from others with multiple 5500's like that I thought we had bracketed the early to mid 60's for that dial variant.

Any possibility that watch could be from the mid 60's?
