This was My Grandfathers watch and due to an incorrect crystal being fitted the bezel popped off and could not be found. The hands got damaged by his sleeve before he noticed what had happened. It keeps perfect time. Can anyone help?

 

Who can help with restoring or supplying parts for this watch?

 

A very nice little watch, probably from the 30s. It will be very hard to find replacement parts as this was not a common model (as with many 20s and 30s examples).

Some of our members are very experienced in the watches of this era and may comment further, but my feeling is that it should be laid to rest.

 

Thanks for your reply, I will hope something comes up as it is obviosly of great sentimental value and I would hate to put it to rest.

 

If you want to resurrect your watch you will need to find a suitable donor watch and your best bet is going to be eBay.

 

That's probably the best option. I would suggest to find a donnor with a complete case because interchangeability is never sure. No need to have a working caliber or a nice dial, so the price should remain quite low.
