The center bows out, not in. Maybe a better pic is needed.

FWIW, that looks like a 210, with a slightly different stamp: VeloBase.com - Component: Weinmann AG 210

I have one that's close, from a wheelset on a Raleigh Super Course. The difference is the way the spoke holes are raised:

I have a pair of Weinmann 650B rims with that profile (sorry no 27's), and I was wondering what model they would be.

Try Wayne Bingham at Velo Classique in Purcellville, VA. He has stacks of Weinmann rims, mostly uneyeletted, he can probably fix you right up with the correct one.

I think I have one, and meant to look for it over the weekend, but forgot. Sorry! I'll try again....
FWIW, this rim should not be hard to find. A lot of bikes came with the various Weinmann 27" rims in the 70's.

You would think, but so far I haven't been able to find one. I emailed Velo Classique, waiting to hear back. But I would appreciate to hear back from you, thanks.

@sloar, I have a Milremo rim that looks similar. Let me know if that interests you.

Thanks noglider, But I'm wanting to find the exact rim. Its going on my newly acquired 1966 Paramount, so I really want to find the original rim.

Someone on Ebay is selling 2 Normandy/Weinmann wheels, and the rims look like the ones you want:
