Louis,
I've had a couple of those pass by my desk over the years. Judging by the movement picture this one is not a true chronograph. It will simply display Month, Day of week and seconds in the sub dials.

It will simply display Month, Day of week and seconds in the sub dials. Thanks Zeke ( Pete ), The top button gets the Sweep hand going but the bottom does nothing. Must be a Chinese Movement in there also but it ticks away real nice too. I cleaned it up out side but it was clean already. Might be hard to find a Crystal for it though...... Inside Gasket is ..34.45 on the Caliper, and not really that thick on the Crystal. Louis

When it was new, all the buttons would have worked butmost of these counterfeit watches never got within a mile of an oiler and usually died within weeks or months of being sold. The fact that this one runs means it can probably be restored to full functionality but please swap out the dial and case back if you intend to post it again

I was going to say, at least it doesn't have some generic Chinese quartz movement. Also looks like the case maybe S/S, not plated junk metal .. doesn't seem to have the pitting around the case edges you will normally see. Why don't you just oil in the correct places , polish up the crystal a bit my friend, and yes .. move it on to some kid who want's to impress his "homies"

Aloha ,
Thanks for the replies back and yes it has a Stainless Case also not a plated one. It movement is really clean in it too and works great. I did service it where I could so it looks nice. The Crystal will have to be found even if it goes to some one. Louis
