And a difficult project unless you can find a watchmaker willing to work on the Tudor 390.
I only know of one idiot who volunteered to service one.
Never again.

I completely missed your 390 service post..... Just finished reading it. Wow. Now I'm very happy to send the next Cal. 390 to my Watchmaker.... Will never ask about his service price again .... Fortunately I have parts for that caliber and a packet of Tudor Mainsprings, I've never opened. Pretty sure, there is everything in it except for these here . And have 2 caliber 390 movement stored for parts , if needed. Bought 15 years ago.... So far not needed. And , NO, I'm not selling these movements. Not after that repair adventure. What a fantastic journey. Any interest in servicing an issued WW2 Glash眉tte pilots chronograph, caliber urofa 59? I have a feeling, there was something missing there..... Can't be much.....

Sure, I can think about working on an historically important chronograph older than myself with no tech guides and replacement parts rarer than rocking horse poo.

If I do decode to accept the job, Annie will PM you with the name of the asylum she's committed me to.

That's the spirit. I send it over Wednesday.

No pressure. It`s only my Fathers Issued very early Glashuette Pilots Chrono. He was a medical Doctor and one of General field marshal Rommel`s Doctors in Africa . Beeing a Glider pilot in his youth, he was assigned officially to the Air Force. it`s just a Family Heirloom.....
