Welcome to the Forum!

Can you read the reference numbers off the case, which give you the model and serial numbers? The serial will help you pin point the year of production. Once you have these numbers, a search on the net/auction houses will give you an idea of the information you are looking for..

Looks good...late 50s or early 60s. As mentioned, the numbers on the case will reveal all.

Little later than the 50s. That's 1960s all the way. The serial will help us.

That would date it to around 1961-62.
