I picked this up today and am not sure its real or not. I cant seem to figure out how to see the movement.

The back dont look like it comes off, It may come out through thr front.

I think it is a front loader, Jim. Other than that, I'd say authentic, but possibly a Swiss only line, like the Internationals? Looks to be good condition.

Yes it is in awesome condition. I got it today from a local watch repair guy I did have the front off and i think you have to pull the crown and stem out to get the movement out. No date code on the back so i am having a hard time dating this watch any thoughts? Back serial no. is 1-109615

Looks like 70's style but that's just a guess.How can you remove a square crystal?
