I was given a watch by my grandmother, she says my grandfather bought the watch sometime in the 50's maybe earlier in Austria. I doubt the watch is worth any great value, but I still would like additional information about it. The watch is made by Finnex, and it says 23 jewels waterproof. Thanks

That is a very funky piece.
What, please is the case diameter, for scale?
Can you post the movement photo?

The diamater is about 1.5 inches, and the watch does not move, I posted the picture in hopes that someone would tell me a little more about the watch, so that I would know if it was worth the trouble to fix it.

I would post a photo of the movement but its a screw on type back plate, and I don't have the tool to un-screw it.
