    There seems to be a peg on the end-link that inserts into the body of the speedsonic. I don't know what is supposed to keep this peg connected to the body of the watch. I cant seem to find any diagrams or booklets of the Lobster bracelet

    Sorry to say. But this is not the bracelet but the lug that is broken. They are screwed into the case. I think this could be fixed by laser welding or you could go to an Omega agent and ask if the single lug is available. The problem would be to remove the remaining piece from the case.

    Here you can see the case without bracelet:

    It took a while to get them out of the box, but here they are. Most of them, the rest is currently in service or partial disassembled. Top left, including the pocket watch, are Megasonic, the rest are f300.

    WOWOWOWOW. How did you get that collection? Did you buy them one by one? Does it come with a story? (All if I might ask, of course)

    They are from a collector in Germany. He bought most of them when cheaper and more accurate quartz watches where sold in large numbers. Some of them are NOS, others heavily worn. But most of them are still running or just need a service to run again. At the moment I'm buying parts and spare movements from all over the world. Sadly it is not possible to post requests here in the forum.

    If you are interested I know a watchmaker in Austria who has a lot of spare parts for the hummers. PM me.

    Best regards Max

    Holy crap!

    You're a sick man, seek help immediately ;).

    How do you sleep at night? I only have two (ATM) and when their harmonics coincide sometimes in the night I can hear them in the next room.

    I already tried to seek for help, but it's hopeless ::facepalm2::

    They are stored without batteries in a safe. I only put one in, when I'm wearing them. Now I'm curious what all the hummers would sound like together. What have you done? Would have to buy batteries for at least 200€, hmmm.
