A watch like that calls for white bell-bottoms and visible chest hair!

The amazing part is that the hammer of the alarm hits the gong (the back case), through the centre of the rotor of the movement

Really like those shades of blue and the little Bling of the round, polished indices ! Typical 70ies appeal, quite unusual also.. Continue to enjoy it in the Best of your health ! hs.
