Seeing Longbike's collection the other week, I thought I'd do a group shot today while giving my hoard an afternoon in the the sun. All are working fine , just a couple need fresh batteries.. Hard to find the 2 tone bracelets, lucky I have one which is in good order.    Cheers Yorkie |

Break out the coin, be aware they can be addictive. If looking make sure the seller photos show both analogue and digital working. Dont buy if seller says "was working, just needs new batteries" Old trap for new players.  |

I'm assuming if they say that it's because the module is cactus? Break out the coin, be aware they can be addictive. If looking make sure the seller photos show both analogue and digital working. Dont buy if seller says "was working, just needs new batteries" Old trap for new players. |

A common fault is old dry oil gumming up the analogue movement. Knowing your skills should be a no brainer for you to sort out. A watch repairer in down town Adelaide fixed one of mine a few years back. Took him ages and 2 attempst to get it right .  |

Cheers Yorkie I will be looking for your Group to look like these soon. 7dfe79adc2f0 My extreme Compliments to the Collector and Congrat's for a superb Collection.  Hope you get more " Aqualand Fever " off those. They look just fine there. And they are very easy to do once done. ________________________________________________________________________ I got these and they are all up and going and still working fine. This is about ....... ( 1/3 'rd ) of what I actually have now. but still searching the elusive Bracelets even second one's will do. Well at least one or two more for now. Glad to see you have been adventuring in the ........ " Land of Aqualand Watchs ".

That's about it for me collecting Aqualands. Not actively seeking anymore, but then again if one happens to come my way well thats a different story.

If any of you need any help with them and I might be able to help you please let me know about them. I have done some things necessary to do after some parts failures and will let you know just what I have done to them. There are some things as to say ...... (very touchy parts) I have found besides the Boards and Movements that can help improve them to be better.
So just let me know and I am willing to let you know .... " Just what I did about it ". If anyone has anything that's not needed let me know, I like ........ " Bit's and Pieces to work with ". I'll see if I can meet your prices for them. Aloha
