I came upon this one that I totally forgot I had!
Its really a nice watch and I have sourced the battery and the correct (I think/hope) stem for it but I need to source a Crown!

There are some markings on the case back but I have NO clue as to the model or the age! I think? It's from the 60s and it has a 4 jewel movement!

Not even sure where to look as I dont know model number! Inside the caseback it has a bunch of #s and letters but I'm assuming? it's the production date??
This thing I was told has a stepper motor whatever that is!

Most analog quartz watches use stepper motors...

What is the text on the case back and inside?

If you look closely around the movement, there should be some indication of caliber, number of jewels, adjustment, etc.

Well, I don't know what the number sequences on the case back mean...

other than perhaps a serial number and 'stainless steel'.

Is the 'undjusted' '4 four jewels' the only text you can see on the movement?

It's likely that the caliber is the '2031'...

This also pegs the watch to the late 70s or early 80s happy.gif
