I'm gonna say that it is more likely a custom made watch/prop.

You might be right but it looks like the case is plastic. I was really into watches in the 70's as a kid and I don't remember a watch case that is similar. If it is a real watch it might have started out as a second-hand watch and then converted to a digital.

it was made in the early 70s, so it might even be from the 60's..

some more pics, including the side band. If anything, the band and side pieces look like they are from some model of watch... one shot you can see the face piece is cracked, so it might have been custom plastic.... or a stunt.
