Makes sense and agree with IWC and above posters - with the caveat that there comes a point in time where it is actually more economical to get it serviced regardless of performance.
By this I...
Get a pressure test from a local watchmaker or show repair place. If no issues, then ignore until service due. It's only noticeable under close inspection, unless it bugs you so much to give it up...
Too late now but would have kept the sub for anything water-related (yes you can wear the pepsi but sometimes only a dedicated submarine type will do), unless you are happy to wear the heirloom SD...
Just when you've read one too many banal watch threads and are about to switch off, up pops a genuinely interesting anecdote. Thanks!
Glad it worked out for you.
I shudder a little whenever I find out that something is being delivered by Hermes.
I've only ever had to return one thing via Hermes. Guess what? They lost it. It...
Great job by both of you. You for the astute purchase and Paul for the work bringing it back to its former glory.
Well done.
Doubt it but...

Be honest you ran it through a "funfair house of mirrors" type of app first, right? Please?

Bugger. Seikos are both lovely. Going off to buy a yellow strap now. Damn this forum, I have enough straps already!
Great watches! Thanks for sharing.
Speedy all the way, but then I'm biased. It's the only one of the four I own. Classic, history, readability.
Would love a Pelagos though on the technicals and...
Wow that is stunning. I really must get myself a military style watch, it's the only thing missing from my collection at the moment.
Keep coming back to Eddie's Smith's too.
I agree with you in terms of aesthetics and love my 2594.52 but there is a method to Omega's madness. The skeleton hands do allow you to read the rest of the dial more easily, especially when it's a...
Asadal, Holborn. For the food, not the service.
Late night on the PS4 because I'm not working tomorrow!

I can only apologise for my part in the sorry turn of this thread. Had I read the post properly, I would never have shown fair-minded and justified solidarity with the OP.

Keep the two birth year and sell the GS. Impossible to source maybe but if your interest in watches has waned, better to keep something that has real sentimental value.
Top marks for a fantastic result. Don't ask in the right way, don't get. I've had similar experiences. Some of us on here know that there are people working in ADs who are genuine watch lovers and...

Um, isn't that a 2502? A standard quartz, alkaline battery, model, not kinetic?
If so, then you need a new battery not a capacitor.
I have an F1 quartz from 1995 and it still works great, only had one movement change and a new pusher in all that time. Bracelet superb quality too. Great beater. Can't speak to modern pieces except...
Keep all three if you can afford it - you are obviously attached to them all. And the make a nice set. A Holy Trinity!
Worth every penny, if you are a multimillionaire
Some who 'service' merely dunk the main part of the movement but don't strip down the parts. This is legitimate to an extent (esp if mainspring is replaced and they re-oil the parts) but is not the...
