I do like that, very similar to my first watch which would have been about 1971. The only big differences are mine was mechanical and had bolder pointed baton indices and smaller again (I was very little at the time). I think the photo below is the model I had.
Regarding the size, I think manufacturers are damned if they do and damned if they don't with reissues. Keep it the same same size and people say its too small, increase the size and vice versa.
Thanks for sharing.
