Just done an update on the Chronographs reference page – I needed to make a couple of small corrections to the 67-9038 section, and add new images from a 1970s catalogue. The models in that catalogue, which I think was for the Australian market, shows slight variations.
Before going to the page, test your knowledge first 🙂 Can you spot what’s different between these two?

Hi Stephen,
Bezel inner ring?
Middle button vs knurled winding crown?
Hi Marvin – you’re right about the crown. I think the inner rings are the same – the scan on the right is not very good quality so does look a bit different. There’s one other difference on the dial – not easy to spot…. Stephen
Very nice rare wrist watch.
Yes, fairly rare and hard to find in good condition. Stephen
Hi stephen, we have discussed this before, but maybe you forgot it. “Australian versions” have totally different tachymeter rings, which I have not seen before. It includes text “Base 15 pulsations” and “UPH” which I believe means “unit per hour”. Units at the beginning of the ring are from 200 to 60 and after that they seem to continue same way as in “normal version”. I believe first units are for measuring heart beat rate and then it continues with Km/h units.
Hi Mikko, good to hear from you – I do need to update the reference page to include these details. Thanks for the reminder 🙂 Stephen
Hi Mikko, I’ve now added the ‘Australian’ versions to the Chronograph page. I hadn’t realised until I did it that the 67-9577 is the same. Stephen
