Sack of rice bro. Trust me.

It’s quartz, so it probably just needs a battery and It’ll be fine.

Well it’s a quartz Seiko. Probably around the 80s if I had to guess, but there’s really not enough info.

The case looks like it’s in surprisingly good condition under all that crud. Is the green and white stuff inside the watch? Sadly that means the dial and hands will probably be quite damaged. The movement will probably be too far gone, but it should be pretty easy to find a replacement.

I think you could bring this watch back to life if you want, it would be a cool story. Take it apart, clean up the case, try to clean the dial and hands as well as you can and replace the movement. It will probably still look quite water damaged but would be in working condition.

If you want to see something cool done with it, you could try contacting this guy to.

Might be beyond saving, but the fire damaged Rolex in this video came out looking amazing.

Throw it back lol

Slight water damage

You should probably put it in a bowl of rice. Not to eat it, just to see what happens.

Score!

Bronze Patina and Turquoise green / Tiffany blue are right on trend at the moment.

Did you buy this from the Theo & Harris store?

Metaldetecting near Okinawa

You got a death wish OP? There is still so much artillery scattered over Okinawa.

It’ll need a new movement for sure, but if you really carefully polished and cleaned it the patina might actually end up looking pretty cool. Especially the dial. Not sure if the case could be saved though.

Wow, ultra rare Seiko Coral.

I’m not an expert, but I think you might have some light water damage there my good sir

I would put this in a transparent resin block and enjoy this on my desk for the rest of my life
