·Your last photo looks like a different watch? Also do you have a photo of the inside of the case back which would help the experts I imagine.

·Same watch. Unfortunately no photo of inside cashback. I think myself that it is a caliber 490. Hopefully someone with better knowledge will help. Thanks.

·Thanks. There is a caliber 490 for sale on eBay but the winder is different. It more circular.

·Last two digits on movement are 90 so probably 490.

Are you referring to the crown? The rotor?

·The crown. All other 490's have a different crown plus owner states this watch is 39mm while other 490's seem to be 34mm.

Yes, I agree with you. The crown is probably a replacement meant for a different reference, and the case is certainly not 39mm in diameter. He probably measured it wrong.
