5M42?!? :lol:



well, the hands are flat, so it might be original.

the usual tell-tale sizes for the dial (window bevel, text, etc.) looks quite close.



but i seriously doubt the parts are original for that watch.. probably pieced together from others.

if it is cheap and u want to use as a project or beater.. if you dont mind, why not?

80bucks! Sgd? :)



The older 6309 hands are flat meaning the metal bordering the lume is flat and angular. Like it is stamped out from a flat sheet metal

The newer SKX hands are more 3-D, like it's was moulded.



Make sense? (I got no pic now to show u)

i think all solid seiko diver casebacks are interchangeable... other bros maybe can advise better.
