·This SSS/M95 - pardon @ syrte - is the one I´d consider to be the most undervalued watch in my world. Really rare, particularly with an original dial - somewhat between 500 and 1000 has been produced, a beautiful movement (like Longines or Minerva inhouse), exclusively assembled by Movado. And a real fat watch...

·I found only three case numbers: 569 (above), 267 (a very fine example shown by chronocentric.com) and 142 (mine).

As well as having 569 on the inside case back, mine also has the number stamped between the lugs:

·That watch of @Darlinboy has lead to a quest that has me communicating at all hours with murky characters in questionable locations. Thanks- P! Please don't ever send me pictures of your watches again! ;-)

·There are actually 2 different references of the (same) super sub sea chronograph; 19041 and 95-704-541. I believe that the case number begins with 1 and runs consecutively for both references so there may be more. See the charts from the Von Osterhausen book below:
...but I never saw one of the "previous" numbers actually stamped in a caseback of one of the newer movados.
Or, did I missunderstand something?
BTW, please, can you explain these two numbers by using your Movado book?
Thanks - h.u.

·@Thomas P.
@minutenrohr
What is the earliest authenticated SSS? I thought I read somewhere they all came after 1966. If so, they would all use the newer reference schema?

·No;
I don't believe so as I have seen some 19041 examples indicating the reference was around before 1966. Look at the pictures of the book I posted above and see the way Movado assigned reference numbers.

·I just spoke to someone this morning with an SSS that had the early "squiggly" sub-dial hands and the number between the lugs was 95-704-541.

·That's odd although nothing would surprise me with Movado. The number 95-704-541 is the reference number. Also the super sub sea is not an FB case like many other Movado screw back watches. Note how the two case backs above are signed differently.

·This is the watch, though no clear case pictures. The dial is claimed to have burn from the lume but that doesn't seem entirely plausible . It's definitely seen better days. The bezel also looks different from the ones I've seen.

·...can´t help; my SSS says "Stainless Stell" (on the other side 142 as shown above).
"Squiggly" does mean the "kris"-hands? This type should be mounted on all M95 SSS...

Looks correct to me. Bezel as well.
