Default bobbins for old White Rotary machine

Hello fellow old machine lovers,

I have an older White Rotary machine which works like a dream. I just need some more bobbins for it.

It seems I need the model number in order to find out which bobbin is right for the machine. And all I can find on the machine is a Serial number.

I don't seem to be able to upload pictures of my machine here, but I can tell you it looks identical to the machines in the thread at this link: Older Viking Sewing Machine - Apparently Not

The only difference appears to be that my machine has a label which says White Rotary, instead of Viking. Mine is the tan color of the second machine pictured in the link. The foot pedal is identical to the one in the first picture, the hinges on the cabinet in the second picture are the same as mine. It must be the same machine, made by one company and branded by another.

The Serial number on my machine is 679 - 3209 The 679 part is in black ink and the 3209 is stamped in.

Could it be a model 679 and the 3209th machine made?

As my quest is bobbins, any help is appreciated -

what model is the machine?
what number bobbin is required?
where to buy such bobbins?
and out of curiosity, how old is the machine?

Thank you for your kindness,
Eric
