Watch Description

Yellow gold electroplate with a rolled gold back. Faceted bezel ring and faceted gold markers on a gilt (champage gold) dial. Date window at 3.

In equestrian  lingo, this one was "rode hard and put away wet", but was a "what the heck is that" watch that cleaned up reasonably well and it is currently keeping time.

One we don't see too often.    I am seeing a 1963 date code on the movement so it might be a movement or rotor swap.  

1967 Sea King "CX" based on the gilt dial and noting a possible movement or rotor replacement.

Thanks, Kathy. Case and crystal are a little scruffy; but the dial/bezel combo and the fact it's one not yet in the database sold me.

Good match to the Sea King 'CX'. You don't often see that style of hands in the late 60s.
