Default Smiths Sectronic identification please

Evening
Does anybody here have a copy of Barrie Smiths clock book?
If so, I have a Smiths Sectronic mk1 ‘Milady’ model mantel clock I’ve just bought, which is the exact model my parents had as a wedding present in 1965. It would be nice to know what date this model was produced to and from please.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Barrie says Milady: 1964-66 with Sectric / Sectronic in 1965.
So looks like it would be spot-on for a 1965 wedding present.

That's great, very many thanks for taking the time to look it up
Interesting that the Sectronic was a year later in 1965, they were married in Sept 65 so it was a very new model at the time. I guess that's why it's been hard to find as it would have only been made for a year, I was very lucky.
Thanks again
Rob
