Monocoque case (I think that's it)

In Response To: Vintage Seamaster ()

It's a one piece case and entry it gained through the crystal. Funny, I opened mine up just yesterday to show my 6 year old son.

The movement comes out through the front and is held secure in the case by a sliding copper sleave. Crown has to come off to pull out the movement.

This is from my `61 Seamaster DeVille cal 550.
