Hi,
Nobody can really give you a constructive answer from the information supplied.
The comments might seem a little unhelpful but without clearer better quality pictures it is pretty well impossible to determine anything. The most important pic at this stage would be the inside of the case back as that displays the reference number which is the necessary starting point to determine anything about the watch.
Cheers

I saw that too--though it was up long enough that you could do a fair amount of decent research on your own. Some big tells:
1. Clover crown;
2. Radium burn on the dial;
3. Screw-down caseback.
4. Case shape.

There's *plenty* of detail offered from the listing for you to get a good ways without needing anyone else's help. I can pretty confidently deduce the reference just based off the details listed; you should be able to do so as well, esp given you bought the thing.

Probably better to resend clearer photos once you’ve received the watch.
If the dial isn’t redone it’s in pretty good shape.
The old flex band has seen better days but I doubt it’s original to the watch.

Looks like it's probably a ck2577. If you search up that reference model, you'll see a number of similar watches and can probably do some more research about your piece.
