Any ideas?  So far I have not found much to pick from, but I could have been looking in the wrong places.
Thanks. ???

If you want  the 'style' - there are reproductions available featuring a quartz movement.

However - if you want the real deal - then you're going to have to look in antique shops, 'old' watch repair shops in your city - estate sales and so on - or on ebay.

Look for the 'big' producers - Waltham and Elgin come to mind - as they were produced in large quantity.

They're out there - and there are some  bargains once you know what you're looking for.

As to the repro's - they're out there as well - but I can't recommend any in particular.

Good Luck.
