My everyday watch. It has a 22-jewel Hamilton 770 movement, and is a manual-winder. I had a custom strap made for this which is a deep cranberry shell cordovan band, by KAMILeather/Atelier Petrov of Norway, and it pairs nicely with the watch and my everyday pair of vintage sunglasses too.
Trivia: Martin Landau's character in North By Northwest (1959) wears the same watch but with a black dial. Can be visibly seen when he forces a bottle of Bourbon to Cary Grant.
A classy timepiece. I found another like yours and also one like Martin Landau wore together on the Vintage Watch Forums:
