Does anyone happen to know what the original box for this watch looked like? Was it the green stripe version?

Does anyone have any experience with mtmvintage on ebay? Looking at an 1803 day-date but not sure if they are reputable. Couldn't find any posts from them on TRF...any help would be much appreciated!

Hi the 1 mil serial May dated back to year 1963 or 1964. My gilt Gmt from 1964 has similar serial.

And handsome watch you have there and look perfect on you. Cheers
