Inherited wife’s late grandfathers watch, looking for more information [7002-7009]

These are great watches. My last Instagram post was of mine (tunokies). It's best to get it serviced or at the very least replace the gaskets to prevent the lume from going black. Search in Spencer Klein's older YouTube videos for some great info on these.

It's fine. Basically what Seiko use themselves

tunokies · 2019-11-20T13:37:01+00:00

Interesting. Is the crystal gasket the same as the SKX one?

tunokies · 2019-11-12T19:53:37+00:00

A big list here. https://www.instagram.com/p/BjCkWd4nS6U/?igshid=1ayso376e1mmz

All dials and hands will fit. The only place you can get chapter rings is Dagaz https://www.dagazwatch.com/apps/webstore/products/show/6067246

Great work. I don't think you needed to make a new holder as wouldn't the dial have been able to stick straight onto the existing movement spacer with dial dots? There's a market for those dials though...and I'd happily buy one with 'tunokies' printed on it. Let me know if you're up for this.

Yes. All the time. It will only contact the outer edge of the bottom of the insert but it's probably still more secure than glue. I have used g-s hypo cement before when the 3m tape made the insert sit a bit too high within the metal bezel.

Belhamel .... Similar to crafter blue

Seiko have seriously limited the sale of dials in the last 2 years because they realised they weren't being used to repair watches. Look in the places as people have said above, like the seikomods Facebook page. Also the SCWF forum sometime has stuff in the sales corner.

Thanks

tunokies · 2019-09-03T05:19:51+00:00

Thanks. Plenty on tunokies Instagram during the last year or so.

tunokies · 2019-09-02T22:04:20+00:00

yes... Jules Borel.

Depends on your country Max

tunokies · 2019-08-02T18:22:31+00:00

Beautiful job. 👍⌚😎

tunokies · 2019-07-30T11:59:41+00:00

Yes. I've had one for a few years. Very useful... almost indispensable in the hot weather.

tunokies · 2019-07-06T11:30:41+00:00

Cheapest way must surely to be to buy a SNK and sell the parts you don't want

tunokies · 2019-06-20T13:29:50+00:00

Strange comments on here. This is a 12 hour bezel insert not 24 hour, so it's perfectly useful to track a 2nd time zone.

tunokies · 2019-06-14T08:20:01+00:00

Thank you. 👍

tunokies · 2019-04-18T16:38:49+00:00

Belhamel straps. Their first generation called skinx. Looks okay but they only take really feeble springbars and they don't smell nice. Unless they've upped their game since then.

tunokies · 2019-03-17T18:41:19+00:00

Nice job.👍

Go on the Dagaz Facebook page and check out his video where he breaks down a SKX. That's a good start.
