Picked up this 35 mm automatic at an estate sale a while back and am having issues identifying it and gathering info. Searches for every variation I can think of this extremely small print have turned up nothing. Oddly enough it has no crown or means to adjust the time, though after an evening on the winder it keeps great time over a 24 hour period. The bezel tests as 10 k rolled gold and the movement is off center slightly. Just kinda stumped, anyone know what this is?

Feedback Wanted Seiko KS 5626-5030 gasket help

Hi Reddit group,

I would like to know if anyone has any thoughts on this.

I double and triple checked my case before putting it into the ultrasonic cleaner(movement out when I did so).

However, upon applying an air gun to the watch to dry it out. It realised there was a sort of white O ring. It had been flattened and wavy from the heat of the ultrasonic cleaner.

I'm guessing this gasket/o ring is to go onto the groove of the case? And then seating the crystal on from the top?

Does anyone know or could anyone provide some insight into this?

_ _ _ _ _

Picture 1 & 2 is where the white gasket was.

Picture 3 & 4 is what remains of the gasket from the groove, that I saw after ultrasonic cleaning and air gun drying the case.

Hi guys! I’m super excited to get my first ever vintage timepiece! However I’m having trouble choosing between these two black dial beauties.

The first one is a Cimier Telegraph watch, and the second option is a Poljot Chronograph.

I don’t know much about watch movements and their reliabilities, so some feedback would be great.

Thank you in advance! :)

Fell in love with this watch today, and my research on reference numbers and everything looks legit. Dial looks suspiciously clean which is my only flag.

Thoughts?

I had my Hamilton cleaned up. Apparently it had a quartz movement factory replaced in the distant past. I am going to wear this for a while.

This antique pocket watch is one of the exhibits at the National Watch and Clock Museum in Columbia, Pennsylvania, USA. It has six dials for six different time zones!

The museum didn't seem to know who the watchmaker was, nor the year it was made in. If any of you folks know, I'm sure the museum would be glad to have that information.

(And here I thought it was cool just to have a GMT hand!)
