doing what ever they need. One old guy gave me this watch and said he had bought somewhere around late 60's early 70's but couldn’t remember when. He gave it to me as appreciation. I found it the other day and trying to figure out more about it I found this site. I tried going to three jewelry stores to have the back removed to get numbers but living in a small town I didn’t get straight answers from two. One guy I asked to remove back and asked about the value told me it was a common watch and offered 25 dollars and couldn’t tell me anything more. He didn’t want to open it I guess trying to buy it cheap as this would put me on the value. Another guy told me he needed 2 weeks to determine anything. I didn’t trust either one. One store said it was a great watch but he was reluctant to open it as he didn’t have the special tools or they didn’t do that type of work. He did not appraise it but said it was valuable enough it was out of his league. I mean come on open the back and write the numbers down for me right there send me on my way. I'll pay and set an appointment.
The watch is a bit dirty as you can see by the pictures and there is a scratch on the cover which if you look close you can see. The cover seems to be a plastic of sorts not glass. There is no band to go with it. All the functions work.
I was hoping to get more general information and would entertain any resonable offer for it. I was hoping someone could give me a better idea by looking at its Hands, The dials, and the basic logo on the back and front.
Thanks :)
