Hard to tell from that pic but looks like a Navi AOPA.
Any chance of a clearer pic of the front and the back?

Could be an 806, could be a few other things.

I'll need clear pictures of dial, inside and outside of caseback and movement before offering any thoughts on value.

As I said in PM and on here, I need the photos before I can address value.

I'll help you with the pics so Roff the expert on these can take a look and give you his opinion.
He's probably going to need a pic of the movement as well.

Not offering value opinions without seeing the inside of the caseback (for serial number) and the movement, but this watch clearly has problems.

The relume job is not very good, which is why it looks so green, and I hate to think what state the movement is going to be in as whoever repaired the pusher used a crown!!!

After 7 PMs in 4 hours my inbox is going to explode, so publicly, and for the last time until I see more details.........

It's not in original condition.

It has been worked on

I can't tell you more without seeing the movement and inside of the caseback

Don't try and open it yourself if you don't know what you are doing.


Also, if it has been in an attic for 40 years you shouldn't be running it - the oils will have broken down and running it without servicing it could damage the movement and lower the value.
