    Hi everyone, I've been around this forum for few months but decided to create an account today because I need to ask a question.
    I just won an auction from ebay, however then sm600 that I won seems pretty weird since it is using front loading case. Here are some picture attached, I dont know if this kind of sm600 exist. Thanks

    I would say that that case is a 165.020 Seamaster Deville one, for an automatic movement.

    There were front loading Seamasters 600, ref 135.018, but the caseback was different:

    And although the 600 moniker does not often appear on the dial, I have seen several that had it.

    (Change the 5 for a 6 in case of a date watch).
