Hi Mike,
I also first thought that the Culver has the wire loops at the end but finally came to the conclusion that the loops are not part of the case but the band.
There are two versions of the Skipper which I have seen that are Strap 264 and Strap 280. One has all four sides stepped the other one only the long sides. I have ads of both versions appraising the watches as the Skipper.
Remains Strap 320 without a name, but there is the "Baron" left. I wanted to check tonight when I am back home if the picture in your ID book match with Strap 320.
Whats still left in the Tilton family are the Quadron members. Brothers in arms are Quadron 120, 121, 124 and 125 plus Quadron 140, all are sub second versions and as such easy to distinguish from the Straps. All of them have those wire loops but slightly differing cases and movements again.
