For all around use, it is hard to beat a Model 5, IMO.

Great combo, a 5 and 629.

There was no date on the box, so the only indication is the stones. The plain white ended in 1973 and the India marked stone started in 1989-1990. But was the India stone just chucked in the box????? My guess is that the India stone doesn’t belong. Thanks, Eric

Thanks Rod, I sold it this evening. I think the new owner is a perfect fit for getting it displayed correctly.

My old 1960ish 5-8. I posted this a while back on another thread but this gives me an excuse to get it back out.

I agree, Rod. Great stag and what appears to be a Waltham compass.
