An excellent example of the Benrus "3 Star" circa 1950s. Features include a stainless steel caseback and a chrome plated case that could be described as a "survivor." The horned lugs are an elegant touch but the caramel colored tropical dial on this piece has to be one of the best we've come across in quite a while.
