·I picked up this broad arrow a couple days ago. Love its look. Paid 1300 for it. Keeps great time. But I’ve noticed two things.
The hands seem a lil worn. The minute hand has a slight bend to it. Close to center … it’s very small.
The hour hand has two buff marks (lines ) on them. It could be residue. Not sure.
When I tap on the watch it slightly rattles. Would the movement cause a “rattle”.
I found a replacement speedmaster metal band for 100 on eBay. Though it needs a linking pin (maybe 2) where the watch connects.
So all in I have 1400.
what can I expect to pay to get the band put back on and in working order ? What about the hands ?
The timing function on the watch (tach) seems to function right. I push it. It runs. I push again it stops. But when I hit reset sometimes it centers at 12 o clock. Sometimes it stops at 12:05 or 12:10.
What would you do in this position.
Thanks
