Enicar Sherpa Graph MK IIb
The MK IIb Reference 072/001 was introduced around the year 1964. Due to the missing date in the caseback, this is just an estimate. The biggest difference to the MKIIa is the use of a lollipop chrono second hand on later examples and the thin sub dial hands, compared to the arrow ones of former executions.

Hands
Minute and hour hand are formed like paddles. They are not painted and have a tip at the end. The tips are not painted too. We see the longer and shorter tips on this reference. Same is with the chronosecond hand which we see as lollipop, but also as straight red hand like on the MK IIa.

The subdial hands are allways thin ones, the arrow shape we don’t find anymore.
