路Hi Guys
Thanks for the add 馃榿
I've got a seamaster 300hz cone which I love dearly - love the look of it .
I got it as not running due to battery leaking and corroding everything. I'm pretty good fixing watches mechanical and quartz been a hobbist for your years .
I did lots of research and took it apart cleaned it all out and serviced and oiled it . Got it running but I'm pretty sure the index wheel is toast. It runs like a stop watch now 馃槀 the seconds hands goes round in 20 second ish .
I've done all the adjustments and that's best I can get it . So I'm waiting for a new index wheel to come up ( at a reasonable price) as I know they are like hens teeth.
Is there an old eta or quartz movement I can put in the meantime? ( Please don't burn me I know it's sacrilegious 馃檹) I love wearing it and would like continue until I'm in a position to fix it .
If it's not possible no worries 馃槑 I'm happy to do abit of moding ( but not to the original parts )
TIA
