Was cruzing ePlay and came across this freshly poste BIN lot... By my count there are at least a hundred old vintage Chinese hand winders in the lot! Described as not working but if I can make one working watch out of the bunch, I win...total cost with free shipping was $4.38 chinathumbsup.gif

Wow, you might want to get into contact with AlbertaTime (Ron) or Saskwatch if you have any questions about the watches. Both of those Canadians are extremely knowledgeable about Chinese watches and super helpful.
Sounds like cheap fun regardless of the outcome chinathumbsup.gif

Sounds like cheap fun regardless of the outcome chinathumbsup.gif Thanks BobbyMike; I know Ron and Jon very well. They are great guys and fanatic collectors of Chinese vintage stuff. I know they are probably as anxious to see what I've bought as I am. Could be a treasure or two in there considering my luck on eBlay recently. With any luck I will be abale to cobble together a handful of nice working watches. At the very least, I'm going to have a huge store of parts laugh1.gif Some of these(in particular, ones with cruddy dials) might be fodder for some nice cheap mil style mods! Something along these lines... That is a 100% fake dial on a real Seiko 66B watch. I would change the brand from SEIKO to PENGUIN or something
