Hi,
I've this watch for about 30 years. It has a very badly repainted dial with "Cartier Paris" on it. The case is stamped 0.925 on the back. The case is very well made with 2 tiny screws on either side of the case. The case is 24X32mm and plexi is 23X20.5mm. The movement is oval and measures 12X15 mm. It has "seventeen jewels" stamped on it. I can't make out the makers stamp, though there is one there. I have taken apart the watch to take photos. I am thinking osf restoring it and have a new cCartier dial which seems to fit.
Is it a genuine Cartier? Thanks,
Ken

Looks like an old fake. How is the case marked?

If you give me a clear shot of the case back and Inside, we can me more certain.
