Help us, help you.
Post a clearer picture. A shot of the movement would be nice too.

It amazes me that despite all the auto functions on cameras these days, people still manage to produce blurred pictures! :-)
Nothing personal B16, but please try again as we'd really like to help you identify your watch.
Welcome to WUS, by the way.

I think this might be the correct case for it.

A better photo of the back and front would help! And don't be miffed at the humor :-!

Cheers, Geoff

PS if you are not up on photograph technique and do have a scanner, try the scanner.

Yes, just funnin' with the OP.
Scanner can work great for this. Put a piece of matte black paper behind itt as you scan.

Also please tell us if it is mechanical or quartz, and describe any inscriptions on the case and face.

Thanks!

That won't do B16, get a decent camera or ask a watchmaker to open the back for you, there is a reference number on the caseback.
