I have this 1965 Kienzle that I got from Germany. It's a nice, simple watch with a black dial. I like the sub-dial that gives it its vintage look. It is a vintage watch considering it is 55 years old.

| Kienzle Cal. 051a53 that runs at 18,000 A/h with a storage of 34h. The movement actually dates to 1960 and you can check out this link for details: http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&a&2uswk&Kienzle_051a53 |

This is a relatively small watch; measuring 32mm wide excluding the crown. It came with a stretchable strap that I decided to remove and replace with a variety of nato straps instead. The 18mm lugs also allow me to use 20mm straps for this watch.
