    Hi....hoping someone can help me ID this watch. I have seen many similar but nothing that matches exactly.

    It is working fine and do not want to open the back, but curious of the year and any other info. It has 14K GOLD FILLED on the back and SWISS under the 6 o'clock position (which I believe means US market watch).

    Also interested in the approximate value.

    Thanks

    Well "hi" back at you OEP1000. Welcome to the OF , hope you stick around and join in after your enquiry is duly answered.

    The year of movement production can be ascertained from the serial number on the movement inside (and checked with any number of online serial number yer charted online) and the model reference is the number on the reverse of the caseback...so unless you (or a professional) opens it up for a look, you won't be able to do research as to the current market value. We try to encourage newbies to do a little bit of their own research before answering. There are a lot of variants in dial design. Not sure about the crown..maybe a replacement. others more knowledgeable will chime in..
