number and description seems consistent with the benno richter book

"Round case, small second, full calendar"

but I cant seem to find a picture..

nice watch though in fantastic condition (dial and case)

I'm pretty sure that I've seen one or two of these before, and from memory it seems right,I'll have to go through my stuff at home and see if I can dig it out.
