The morphological features of CMDs of Be 69 are better understood in terms of convective overshooting. The comparison of CMDs with the convective overshoot models (Bertelli et al. 1994) produces a good fit for a metallicity Z=0.008, age = 0.8 − 1.0 billion yr and (m-M) = 14.3, which corresponds to a distance of 2860 pc.
