There’s a couple marks (5 and 11 o clock marker) on the dial, other than that watch is fairly okay-ish. Manual wind. Watch works when i wind it, but haven’t wound it fully to try to time. I love these vintage dive watches.

No idea what movement this is. Looks familiar though.

Ok, last non-japanese post from me tonight and I'll go change my watch and wear Seiko the rest of the weekend,promise 😉. Here's my Sheffield Allsport. Original strap as far as I can tell. The dial glows nice for a moment. Must of been a torch when new. It's rocking a Ronda 1215. A pin lever but an odd one. Read about it here - 17jewels.info/movements/r/ronda/ronda-1215/Coolest thing is the "quick set" date. Setting the time backwards causes the date to rapidly advance. Twelve hours worth of rewind advances the date a full month. Haven't seen this anywhere else.

That's a clever quickset feature, Andy. Nice little skin diver you have there.

Nice looking watch... I have a LeGant no where near as good of condition as this that has a similar movement. Not sure what you paid but find it funny you can by a Seiko powered dive watch for little to nothing...
