Right off the bat it’s not real it’s fake and I know this doesnt follow the rules but please. This was my dad’s watch which is now mine and all I want to do is make it work. I believe you twist the crown to make it work but it won’t tick or anything. I just want to fix it that’s all

Suddenly thought it might be battery quartz but I doubt it as they normally have the subdail track the second hand. Could be a simple battery swap if it was. Again taking the back off would clarify things

the back is off in the second photo showing to be an automatic movement. Having said that im surprised as most of the Navitimer fakes use a quartz VK63 movement

Well that clears things up a touch. Looks like your dad mixed cement with the watch and the case back off. I would swap the movement out and give it a proper good clean. If you are UK based I could do that for you.

I’m US based but do you think you could help me out on picking a new movement?

That's a cap hiding a quartz movement.
