    I bought this watch on an auction. Just wondering if someone could help me authenticate it. The back and the crown aren’t market or anything so I got a bit concerned.

    Looks OK, needs a service and a new crystal.

    A under valued brand in the vintage world.
    It will make a good daily wearer once serviced

    Do you have a picture of inside the caseback.

    I have two a bit later than yours

    I think it's a nice watch and the harsh lighting doesn't do it any justice.
    It's imaginable for the case back to be blank. The crown - I believe - should be branded, though.

    It'd come down to how much you paid for said watch and to how much you like it.

    I paid around 160$ for it. I haven’t opened the back myself as I don’t have the tools to do so. Therefore I haven’t checked the inside of the case. So you are saying that the crown most likely is replaced with an off brand?

    Just a replacement crown done at some point in its life. No biggie. They wear out.

    Get it cleaned up, wear it and enjoy it!
    They are an under appreciated brand from back then
