Aloha , A fellow Forum Partner had given me some advice on how to fix my broken ... 7T34-6A09 watch. He gave some advice on what to do with it and it was a very good point to learn. Later he emails me and asked me for my Postal address, so I sent it to him. To day in my Postal Box I get this, a gifted parts watch but I think it has much potential to get repaired. A 7T34-6A09 also . I first saw them when I started to collect a few watchs and said, wonder how Big they are ? But never came close to getting one yet. Now I have one so I am going to get it done some way. I have to find a bracelet for it, because I only have the head right now. But will try to fix it some way in the mean time. I think that Dial some way can be cleaned to be nice again. I just love it, even if it is not a Aqualand , but I always wanted one of these too. ( Found out it is my .... " Birth Month ", too........ November ). Thank you very much Sir for a fine gift. Aloha Louis LongBike

Aloha Josh, Yes it did I followed Tony Anzacs post about his watch and he said some one told him .... Lemon Juice and Saliva. And also ....Tony Cockroach said Saliva also...... " Well I got a Q-tip and tongue dabbed it and it came right off ". It was just a little dry powered stain, and it came right off and now it is clean. Now for the parts searching. Never did one too.

Unless it's rust the marks come off every time. Nice watch Louis. T

Aloha , Yes guys I finally found one and it was a gift all the way from Singapore too. When it got here yesterday I was surprised because I did not now what it was. I was expecting a couple of the gears, and a watch head shows up and just the one I wanted for so long. Now to find a working movement and get it completed. I have been fiddling with the old movement and they are not that hard. One needs a lot of " PATIENCE " (rofl)for doing these, and a steady hand. I stripped the old one and said I am doing it once more, and now I remember it so another one is would probably no problem. I am getting to like these difficult ones now. The Dial is very nice and clean now and the hands also. Aloha Louis / LongBike

I'm looking forward, to seeing this one on your wrist, Louis! Hopefully this one can be fixed soon. I am hung up on the parts right now. I found out this one is and killer to find a working movement for it. But everything else is ready to go. So the search has been quite interesting to it and each attempt to find one has been .
