Post subject:  Is My Watch Worth Fixing Geneve Incabloc

I am trying to determine if the watch I have is worth getting cleaned up. It works but needs to be cleaned and a new crystal. I have searched for a picture of it or reference to it on the internet with no luck. Any help you can provide would be appreciated. On the face of the watch it says:

Geneve
17 Jewel
Incabloc

There is also a red tipped arrow/hand inprinted on the face pointed just past the one oclock position.

On the inner workings the following is stamped:

17 Jewels Unadjusted
Swiss
LYD
Montres

Next to Montres there are 3 characters that were not stamped. I believe they are a backwards capitol J and ER.

On the inside of the back cover the following is stamped:

Montres Teriam
Swiss Made

Above that K483V is engraved by hand. (difficult to read)
Below Swiss Made, 2 X 9-77 is engraved by hand. (difficult to read)

Thank you for any help.

a pic of the watch face might be really helpful ?
and slightly larger pics so we can see the movement ?
it is a 2-crown watch, so probably an early diver or an alarm watch, but would be missing parts of the mechanism then ?

but one thing can be said without having more info, from a commercial view it would most probably not make sense to have it restored, the costs of this will exceed the realistic market value; but maybe it has sentimental value or you just like the way it looks ?
