    Looks like a ref 500 from here, with a replacment dial (??) And movement &
    case numbering not closely paired. The crown is by the by.

    Hi RISHTAIWI,

    the case number leads to a production date in 1954. The movement is a Caliber
    89. Can you tell us the exact movement number, i cannot read it from the image
    posted.

    Hi Rishtaiwi,

    Nice watch, not a reference 500 as stated above. The ref 500 has a 852
    movement and a monocoque case (the case opens only at the front). I should
    know, I have one...

    Best regards,

    Henrik

    Pardon me 527

    ( though calatrava cased c.89s with 13xx range are never ref marked- olde boys
    say ref500)
