Caseback seems that way with a quick look online at parts. Threads seemed okay, but cannot say for sure.
Although I’ve known her nearly 15 years, that particular... custodian... is very stubborn so it’ll be a lot of work to get this watch out of her shop safe and into a ‘loving’ home.
Very very unlikely I can get this watch home with me, if I do then it’s likely on the promise I don’t flip it. Definitely worth getting repaired though, no?
If it’s mine I’m happy to wait for the right caseback to come up - I’d own it to wear it. Then I can hope one of you guys come across one months/years after my eventual acquiring.
Looks to be missing all the lume spots on the hours too. Suppose there would be an argument to save money and one day see about full service/repair/relume.
You may struggle to find a correct case back for it, and would have to hope the threads haven’t now been mangled.
Balance not swinging in one orientation is sometimes an indication of a bad pivot, but is less likely on incabloc movements.
