Very odd to have applied yellow gold hour markers.  I believe it is Lieutenant with replaced movement and dial,  Yet to find what model the dial came from.  Possible a Cambridge?

So Lieutenant, Unknown or Non-conforming?

Not knowing if the case/face/movement combination is correct, for the time being I have to go Unknown as well.

I think all three of those are options.  Looks like a Lieutenant case but with a different movement/dial so I will agree on going with Unknown
