I am good with Sea King

I'm at Unknown. Case may be a match to that Sea King, but the rest doesn't add up for me to match to another Sea King model.

Waiting for a tool to arrive (tomorrow), then I can remove the case back.

BTW, is it possible the dial has been replaced at some point?

That or the entire movement (and dial + hands) may bhave been swapped for a working one. It's not uncommon for a repair to involve this levelof change. Good luck with opening the case. Hopefully it turns easy for you.

I'm going to ID a unknown for now. Ken is correct in saying that there is no close or perceived match to a Sea King.

The only difference I see is the dial and hands so it can't be the 'CW' or 'CX' variant shown in the ad.
