Hello all,

I have aquired a neglected SMf300 hummer which I'm in the process of restoring. I've been able to source a new crystal from Cousins but I've not been able to source a crystal gasket ( or part number for that matter).

Could someone please help with a part number and possible source?

For some inexplicable reason the bracelet has also been deliberately damaged (drilled, see pic 🤦). Are these links easy to replace?

Thanks as always 👍

WTF with the drilling. Hope you got a considerable discount. As far as I know those bracelets are not easy to replace. Somewhere on the forums is a listing of what crystals fit what references. I don’t remember if it also listed the gaskets, but I can’t seem to find the listing, sorry .

Thanks for your post. This list is very helpful and I have found the gasket ref. The only issue I am having is translating the gasket ref. 607 into a meaningful part number that I can then search for? I'm hoping someone might be able to translate.

@Archer Help! 😀

I'm guessing there was an emblem of some sort attached to the bracelet that was subsequently removed.

I've observed people destroy their homes before foreclosure, this reminded me of a similar damage 😀

@SkunkPrince 's theory makes sense, I guess the owner was on a high adding rivets to leather straps and things didn't go so well when he finally got to the steel

Anyone know where I can get hold of an old 1178, or even part of one for spares? 🤔
