Good Question You can always post that question over here too http://www.network54.com/Forum/170229/message/1219927438/FS-++Citizen+Ti+Promaster+NY0054 Alot of Seiko Casio Veterans over there, if none of the Vets here can answer you. The back looks good to me, its the front that looks suspect. If its real, send it to the Spa and get her a new pair of shoes.

I highly doubt anyone is replicating Seiko5's....as far as the Arabics it was made for sale in the mid-east contries by Seiko...I have a couple Seikos and other watches with the same kind of date wheel in different dialectshand6.gif get me a clear pic of the caseback and it can be identified by the numbers as it looks like a 6309 version...here is a good reference for Seiko's http://www.makedostudio.com/watches/seiko-divers/

Nope, it's real. It's a variant of the 6309 lineup. Here's a version with different colors: ![]() I'll post more information as I can find it.

tamir, I wouldn't be surprised that the crown doesn't screw down, as it's not a 'diver'. The bi-directional bezel is most likely normal too. Neat history.
