Checking on my Aqualand Watchs to see if they all working. Yep they all working except Two I doing the Movements, and Two need new Stems. Models are : C230, 022, 021, etc. There is more but doing these first, then the others. Then put the Straps back on them.
What you guys Think : These are just some and more in the box. But I have some that are the same models also. Attachments:

Aloha Sir and thank you. I had a lot of time spent to find out what makes these guys .......... " TICK ". To many become dead and parts, so I made them work. I don't have that much invested in them, but they are a few. Like to get more different divers from different other models, that's why I like to find cases then try doing them If I could find old big watchs, that would be just fine. I think enough of those type of watch already.....Hahahaha. May be Clocks, Beautiful Clocks, even small one's, but so pricy for them. Aloha Sir and thanks again Tony.

I'll keep my eye open for some thing for not heaps of money and interesting in the clock world for you Luis. There are plenty of interesting clocks out there that can be hand for not huge amounts of dosh aka $$$$ If you have 'enough' Aqualand things why not sell a couple off to fund next project? I've started doing it with the watches... or will... or might but then I might just keep them all... HELP!

Therapy is needed. Looks like you've being a busy boy. Hey Yorkies, yeh I just call is maintenance. They are all working fine and ticking away. I like to fine some older ones too, enough C230's . Hahaha I need couple more Lumbrites The First series type ones like the one on the bottom of the stack of bracelet ones, with the gold bezels. Even if not working I take it. I like other also but hard to come by because everyone likes them too. I like big old divers like the " JAW'S " one , ( " The Alsta " ), and those kind. European ones be fine also, but costly. Someday I will get another of one I had given to me by a very good friend, the Eterna " KON TIKI ". I had two along time ago, but eventually they get misplaced. But there are a lot of others also, and might have a chance to them also. Problem is having a big size wrist too can be hard to find suitable kind. Finding a empty big case can be done to make one too. Thanks for the return reply Aloha ..... LongBike

Note: " Aqualand Neilo " , is not the ........... " Former King " , He still is. I will not compete to that Honorary Title, ......... It belongs to him.
Maybe ...... Aqualand II , that be ok.
