Recommendations for sourcing cal. 861 part?

spe777 · Aug 11, 2021

Hi all,

I have a Mark II that is in need of a specific part--the 12 hour recorder--and I'm having a bit of trouble sourcing it. Nobody with an Omega parts account wants to sell the part new and I'm not seeing anything used/new on Ebay.

For those of you in a similar situation, what have you done to successfully source cal. 861 parts? Is there a resource you know of who might have this available?

TIA!

........................... Nobody with an Omega parts account wants to sell the part .........

Accredited Omega watchmakers can not sell parts provided by Omega.
They are provided to the watchmaker (at a cost) to perform maintenance/repair in accordance with Omega specifications/requirements.
I am sure that if a watchmaker was found to be selling parts their Omega account would quickly be cancelled.
