1970 Quartz 5100 question

Dear All,

This is my first post and my compliments on such a comprehensive and well maintained forum. I hope I am posting my question in the correct forum and apologies in advance for posting a question without introducing myself properly.

Question: my father owns an original ltd edition Quartz 5100 in yellow gold purchased in 1970. Having fled from a revolution in 1978, the original box and papers were left behind and we have only the watch in near mint condition. Any suggestions on where / how to go about sourcing the correct box and papers?

Thank you and wishing everyone a very healthy, happy and prosperous 2015

Eddie (London, UK)

Papers are impossible. Box and accessories (books, tags) should be possible but very difficult. Even a photo of the correct set for this one will be hard to find. 1978 revolution...Iran? Welcome to the Forum.
