First of all, warm welcome to 3TThumbsUp02.gif.

That watch is really shouting vintage and it's in heck of a great condition after all these years. Your photo is great, too.

What is the water resist rating? That bracelet reminds me of the GP. Big Congratsthumbsup.gif

Thank you!
I haven't figured out what mvt this is, but would like to know. Marked ST 173, nothing under the balance.


It's been keeping excellent time sine I got it. Here's pics:

Thanks! Marked as 600 feet, non-screw-down crown, all stainless case. My current favorite!

Times, that's quite a feat...600 feet on non-screw down crown. I wonder what that would look like on black zulu....???

Congrats Rocket on a sweet vintage diver...does the watch or movement say "Swiss" anywhere on it?....if so the movement could possibly be a ARSA(Auguste Reymond) which used a 17j no date UT 173 and this could be the date version?....possibly made by Unitas.hand6.gif

Thanks! I think that is the one....now I know I own a Seiko again! I used to have a 60s era Seiko 5, that was a great watch.
