·I got this watch through a charity auction, liked it enough to see how it cleans up. I would really like to know more about it. Here is what I have so far.
Numbers on the inside of the case: GD-5910054 2193. I think this makes it made in the 1970's, GD is plated 80m yellow steelback, which seems to match the case. 591 is Lady's Electronic Non-Waterproof. Yes, it looks like a lady's, has a quartz movement, definitely not water anything with its no-gasket back and push button crown. I could not find anything to help me decode the 0054 or 2193. Number on the movement (on the battery strap) is 12537957. So, looks like maybe late 1970's quartz DeVille. Photos below. Wondering if it is a Frankenwatch or counterfeit, unlike other vintage quartzes that have movement inscribed on the back. Maybe that was a 1980's thing.
Any help or comments will be appreciated. View attachment 1537738 View attachment 1537740
