The pictures have managed to hide some of the important frame set details that would help with identification. I agree that the bicycle is of sixties vintage and you can get a better estimate by applying some of the information available in How Old Is My Bicycle?

That said, I am pretty sure that the bicycle is a Bottecchia Model Special, a pretty nice mid level offering in those days. I have owned a few of these lovely old Italian bicycles and never been disappointed...
