Seiko HI-Beat certified chrono movment

[Nucejoe]

I have just the case, dial, crown and stem, missing the rest. Hi Beat movement calib 5626-5020 originally came in it. My questions are.

1- Would other series of calib 5626 fit in it ?  I don,t want to break dial feets.

2- How much you think this would be appraised, with good movement and without?

3- How much should I put in it, movement and all.

4- Is this rare and collectable?

It looks better in person than in picture. 

I have got 20 or so seiko, but I am not a seiko man,  rather more like meat and potato man.

Regards

Sure looks like a 5626-5090 from somewhere 1975-1976 can't see the serial number clearly..
I haven't seen many of these so it might be rare but in mint condition these should fetch around 200-300$ since it isn't the popular "King Seiko". 
Unfortunately I haven't fitted any movement in one of these cases...
Since I collect anything with a movement in it I would say ..yes it's collectible.

Not much worth is it, you meant 200 to 300 USD  complete as watch.

   I ,ll check the calib and serial No.  Thanks HSL

You were right, 5626-5090 and the serial is 4N1347.

That’ll make a lovely watch. Good luck with it and finding the parts you need.

Post some pics if and when you get it done.

looks like I am going to need lots of good luck to find a chronometer grade movement.
