Heuer Solunar 279.603 - which case back

Hi all,

I recently bought a Solunar but without bezel and case back as restauration project.

Here is my question: given the rare model and low production numbers I presume that Heuer used a generic case back from another model. The outer diameter is 37,6mm, the diameter of the thread (outside) is 34,6mm. Any idea, which model this is from?

In case you come across a bezel or case back please let me know.

Thanks to Jeff and Chronotrader!

Niko
