Yep, I own this 1971 KS 4502-7020T. It’s a manual wind Hi-beat (36,000 bph), hacking seconds, quick date snap at midnight, outstanding value for money... I think I paid ~ £400.
By contrast these other two on eBay are £400 and £900 and perfect examples of how polishing and tarting up can destroy the character.
I’d say £500 can get you a nice example if you’re patient and do your due diligence.
