Top crown looks to be correct, though worn. Should be fairly easy to find the right replacement crown. 24hr hand has been refinished not particularly expertly. A replacement is, unfortunately, hard to find. I really like Guides. Have a few myself. Enjoy!

They show up occasionally. Like everything else Enicar, parts have gotten scarce and expensive since Enicar became popular: blessed be the book and cursed be the book! Mini Dives can be sometimes found quite reasonably priced and you may have to find parts that way. The triangular pointer...

No, they are not. I have a number of Guides myself.

Check ebay and post a WTB ad on this site and enicar facebook sites.

Just didn't want anyone hitting the buy-now expecting to get the part.

When you hit "buy this part" it suggests buying a used movement and links to an ebay auction listing the wrong movement.

It is the last version of the Super Jet which came in a "pillow-case". There was a Super Dive version as well. Not my cup of tea as I prefer the earlier designs. Here's a few links to other sites that have similar watches...

Outer bezels for aqua-graphs and jet-graphs are very hard to find. Occasionally they turn up on ebay but they are usually in poor condition.

No, different size. Thanks for posting though as I'm back and had forgotten. I have two spare Guide pointer rings. Both are the later style with a "house" pointer and a "stepped" outer edge. I believe earlier pointers have a bevelled outer edge instead. When the retaining method changed, I...

Red indicator rings for the Guide show up for sale from time to time. Watch the for sale forum here, eBay, and the facebook Enicar groups. There are two different pointer styles: early with a triangular pointer, and, later with a “house” pointer. There are also two different attachment...

Pretty good?!? Looks great !!! Enjoy

I’m not at home now or I would measure one for you. Here’s one for sale with a “measurement”: https://www.ebay.com/itm/203911187746 Caveat: I’m always suspicious of measurements that are exactly a whole number — seems wildly unlikely. There are at least two different designs of indicator...

I'm in Canada so don't have any recommendations for watchmakers in the UK. There is this fine chap: https://www.vintageenicar.com/watch-servicing

No disputing the fact it works but it sure looks funny! Glad you got it off and found nothing but good news.

Cosmetically it looks to be in "good" condition with signs of use but not heavily worn. Near as I can tell from the low-res photos, the parts all match. $1800US would be about market value.
