The serial number to me would be a 64, and in terms of "the stack" of the hands the 24 hr hand is first. The dial looks correct and as I stated before the serial is 1149XXX. Based on that serial could I have the yr wrong?
Sorry no pictures but did have the watch in my hands for inspection....just trying to identify for the present owner!!
thanks

IDENTICAL.. except for the 24 hand...it also is a pepsi and other than a few buffable scratches in the crystal, in very similiar condition with the markers still glowing.... must have had a dial service as that is a long time for Tritium to still glow!!
thanks Mike

Well,...how long does it glow? You might be seeing the phosphors when they react to light. If it's just for a few seconds that might be it.

Sounds like the 24 hr, hand was replaced sometime along the line. Happened a lot. A small one can be had with a little searching.
