    PRS18A bezel spring

    Hello all
    I have an early PRS18A with eta movement. It’s a great watch but the bezel click spring needs replacing.
    Essentially 3 of the springs on the click spring ring have snapped over the years. As such there is only one left.
    Does any one know where I can get a replacement (bar Timefactors obviously) the watch is rather old so I am pretty sure Eddie won’t have the replacement parts.
    The bezel still clicks (loosely) but the last spring will give up the ghost eventually so would like to plan ahead.





    Cheers in advance

    John

    Was the 18A made by Fricker?

    I bought a replacement click spring for my 17C from Fricker late last year. It was about £25-30 including shipping.

    Worth a try
    Thanks for the tip.
    I have also look at similar springs on eBay so I will dig the callipers out.

    I have a few replacements, I think I bought them from timefactors a few years ago. Over 10 I guess...

    I will try Eddie when he is back up and working after his operation.
