Bog standard Seiko Navigator, 6117-6410 cheap find on Ebay. Cracked crystal, missing bezel and low power reserve. Dial and lume are excellent and it will clean up very well along with a movement service.
Is it just me or does it bear a striking resemblance to my avatar?

Looks great to me! I just picked one of these up recently too. I don't think you are missing any bezel. Being a watch that cannot be wound, a couple days of wearing seem to give mine a power reserve of an extra days-worth. But it does have a quick-set date, which is handy in that situation. My favorite part is the intentionally-joggled GMT hand. Enjoy!

Definitely missing the outer Steel bezel. Quick set date is a bonus. The GMT hand is a favourite too. Got any photos? What do you wear it on strap or bracelet?

Hey, I'm sorry, I guess it's hard for me to tell in that photo since it would just be a thin ring around the crystal. Sure, here's a pic with it's brother. I usually just wear them on Nato's since the bracelets are tricky to adjust. Similar but way different on the wrist!

Was the original finish polished or brushed? Here is an original advertisement and it looks polished.

Arrived back from the watchmaker and cleaned up quite well.



If anybody has an original bracelet they would part with please drop me a DM.
