Watch Description

Just picked this one up; it's a very low profile single piece case and is a front loader that requires a crystal lift to open, which I don't have. Movement model is therefore unknown. Nice clean watch with a few speckles on the dial that appear to be deteriorated lume from the "squares" above the indices. Started running with a single crown turn and is currently keeping time.

According to 1966 linebook 162

1966 Sea King "AG" on the original JB band.

Another nice one Bob with the original band as well.  I love the 60s vibe.

1966 Bulova Sea King "AG" is a good match.

How does it wear on the wrist?

If only I lived in the US I could pop over with my crystal lift, although there are a few affordable ones to be had on eBay.

Wears very well, comfortably contacts my 7" wrist 365 degrees and case is really thin. Case ends are not much thicker than the band.

At some point, I'll buckle down and buy one (lift).
