    Hi.

    The watch is omega vintage quartz watch.

    The case number is 196.0124 .

    i bought this a few days ago at ebay.

    but the glass fixed with only glue without yellow tension ring.

    There is a gap between dial and watch case or glass. and What is the nonsense glass?

    First i thought the omega vintage watch is usually like that. but i am wrong.

    There must be a yellow tension ring. and handsome glass.

    i found omega ref number compitible my watch.

    the number is PX5229 but, i couldn't buy PX5229.

    Where i can buy PX5229 with yellow tension ring?

    i didn't find it at ofrei, julesborel with my case number(196.0124 or PX5229).

    this watch is compitible with glass? (http://www.ebay.com/itm/111036553518?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network)

    Hi Minho
    At last you have your watch together and hopefully your wearing it now.

    It's quite a work up repairing vintage watches and sourcing the correct parts can be extremely frustrating and time consuming.

    Now you have completed one it's time for the Next.

    Have fun,

    Brian
