Cary,

This model is pictured in Ehrhardts MB, page 82, bottom right corner. Listed as Strap 765 with a caliber 3351 (I think that means 21 jewels?) in 14k yg. I haven't checked the ladies models for it yet.

I like this one too! Smile



Thanks Liz,

I had seen it in the Erhardt book, and conveniently forgotten that. I have never seen an ad for it, and don't know a model name, if it ever had one. Some of the 335 models were known as numbers in a series. It is 21 jewels, (there was a Swiss 17 jewel version of the 335, as well as a 23 jewel version produced in the US) and has the USA produced 335.

This one is a lot of fun to wear, and it does get noticed.

Regards,

Cary
