Ok, i have always had a soft spot for Tissot's and I've been looking at this one for some time now and may just spend some hard earned pocket money on its purchase! So the question is what value would you place on it? it looks very original, but is it? I have found some information on the watch and believe it's from the mid 1970's. So should i buy it? i need someone to push me either way.....there's also a nice 5717 for sale, mmmmmm what should i do. ???

Thanks gentleman for the wonderful replies, I was not expecting much in that area, being a Seiko/Citizen forum. But, from the information provided I've gleamed that the movement was made from 1972-1980 and is [size=medium]equivalent to Omega 1481 
the only other photo i could find was this one, which shows a different crown, larger, although it doesn't look to be all that well fitting, with a large gap behind the crown (required for the quickset???) AND this one on the Bay 280525817839, which is the same watch!! The owner wants $330US for the one i found and the Bay-boy wants $450, It is hard to get a realistic value with only two examples!
