The box pictured is for non sport models. The sport model watches in the USA used this box set but the larger version.

Shoot, my apologies....you are correct. There is variance due to sets being put together at the ad but for the most part, you are right.

Additionally, non USA watches had a different box which is referred to as the "moonscape or moon crater" box. Correct USA Bufkor boxes pictured below.

As Springer above stated, the correct box for a 1675 from 1978 sold in the USA would have been the Bufkor box set.

That would work also - outside the USA, but it really wouldn't matter unless one has the original warranty paper and booklets indicating where it was sold.
Definitely a few box options.
