    Note the two screws, one between the 8 & 9, and the other between the 2 & 3 that are holding the dial on. Ugh!

    Maybe they're the missing case screws ;).

    I wonder what's holding the movement in?

    If you are interested in watch making as a hobby and can get this for $25 it would be a great watch to practice on.
