Congrats,
Hello Bill Yes its the slowbeat movement and it still retains its original fish crown. The strap is a replacement though.....perhaps to be expected after a few years wear of the original one but I can live with that. I will keep my eye open for a true original one. Sure to be a NOS one about somewhere
The word iconic is often used when describing watches but the 5002 is truly worthy of the title
I wonder which watch keeps calling you back

Yes, I can well imagine the "pull" of this specific model, and of course the joy on your side of seeing it back in the collection, fish crown and all.
Sometimes, one simply has to bow to the pressures, and follow your heart....
Enjoy!
Best regards
Mark
