Additional Information
Stainless case. When purchased it had a Speidel stainless strectch band installed. I looked through the archive ads and couldn't quite find this case/model. Is this a Sea King, or other model? I purchased this off the 'Bay, and unfortunately cannot provide any history of the watch. Unfortunate as well, the watch loses time rapidly, and I've been told there's a problem with the cannon pinion. I'm looking for a donor movement or to repair.
EDIT 09.10.2014 Root record changed from 1969 to 1970 based on owner noting date code NO (1970) on case.




Yeah Arch I didn't mean your watch exactly.... just the printed Sea King, but I couldn't remember specifically which other watch I was looking at recently: I'm also good with the Sea King title, I'm sure we'll get the variant info eventually.


Nice Sea King, Archie.
As with all vintage watches, it needs to be fully serviced or it shouldn't be run, this can cause permanent damage. While doing the service, a watchmaker can fix your cannon pinion or replace it. Just a quick note on 'service'-
A full CTR is complete disassembly, cleaning in waterless solutions without ultrasonic (it strips plates) repair, reassembly, lubrication, regulation including all adjustments including demagnetization. I come across many 'serviced' watches that are merely filthy watches, oiled on the top jewels only, and passed off as being completely serviced. More often than not, there is an attempt to rinse or 'dip' the watch, sometimes even in alcohol, which should never be done.
Hrmmm... printed "Sea King" on the dial.... that's unusual in itself. For some reason I think we've seen this before....
