IMO whole watch is a fake

wrong hands
incorrect caseback
incorrect bezel
claimed as a 1958 , I haver never seen a 1958 765 AVI
'military' engraving incorrect
panda (post 1962) case

and no movement shot .. all in all , leave well alone , only good for spares

multiple issues on this one, strange caseback, incorrect combo of dial, hands and bezel.
either an unknown exceution with an incorrect dial from half a decade earlier, a "prototype", or .... so franken at least.
