Case:  Solid stainless steel 2 piece case with screw back and fancy double horned shaped lugs.  Measures 34.5mm in diameter excluding the original crown.  Signed inside the back Zelcon Watch Co (I am not sure of the connection to Baume & Mercier) but to me this watch looks so sharp and the dial fits so perfectly to the case and hands that it seems to be original.  A great looking vintage timepiece never the less!  Comes on a new old stock, period, genuine leather 16mm un-tapered strap with original steel 16mm buckle.
