Sea-King ?

Can you please help. I have two questions: Is this a Sea-king and did the bracelet come with the watch when it was new.

Shot of the movement and case back will help  finding out what this is. Sharp watch by the way.

 I can give you a shot of the back but not the movement. It has a 1970 code with a case back serial : H459598

could be an Aero Jet, could be a Date King, could be a type of Clipper. Need to see the movement for jewel count, mech type

(auto or hand wound) , movement date and movement model. Really need to get the back off for positive I.D. Peter.

Bob, its an auto.

Wow. Aero Jet , Date King  or a Clipper. It's a shame you need to see the movement., I could take the back off but I might scratch it and I don't want to take that risk  ....  If you know what I mean.

Peter, there's a pic in ads, page 12, image 18 top right watch. Got your strap, and very similar case and dial.

The "scorch" marks on the back of the band are a little "Odd" to me. I've seen a lot of jewelry store work (or should I say screw up's) but this is a new one to me.

Peter, nice watch, and the band (less the scorch marks) appear to be stock.

Bob, that strap, case and dial are very similar. "21 jewel movement" 

The scorch marks are spot welds via JB Champion. Very poor quality control from them.   look llooq
