I wish I could say that I am wearing Linda Lovelace but sadly it's just a Microma

This one. Just arrived yesterday. It's a '72 6139-8002, and would have been, uh...brand "spankin'" new when Ms. Lovelace became infamous.   |

My 3rd watch of 2015 arrived from Hong Kong this week, a lovely 7009-5010 that needed a little attention. It only cost $11.50 (plus postage, which was more than the watch!!)  You can see from the sellers pictures that it had a nasty ding at 6pm, and also the second hand was missing. That said, I really liked the dial and it looked in pretty good condition. Some work today has resulted in this:  even better!! It took me a while to suss out how to get the crystal out. |

New to me .. came with the subdial hand detached but still under the crystal .. I guess it's going to need a new crystal, other than that working as it should  6139-8050 Speedtimer   |

Well holy shit, you do learn something new every day! I typically think of former NHL great Frank Mahovlich when celebrating my birthday. He and I were born on the 10th as well. Now I have to think of Linda Lovelace as I'm gobbling down some sausages at Denny's today too? Good grief....going with the TST on this now "extra special" day.  |

This is Mikey's 6309-7290 that he sent to me to fix up...  I had to replace the balance as the hairspring was twisted and I couldn't get the coils concentric and not touching on compression. A new balance assembly fixed that up. The watch got a complete service, new gaskets(bezel, case back and crown) and new crystal along with a new bezel with new insert. With all the new gaskets; the case tested good to 4ATM. It is probably good for a lot more but that is the max pressure I can expose a watch to in my 'chamber'...good enough for washing the dog at 60 feet below  The nice Nato is one of half a dozen different nylon straps Mikey sent me! Pardon the dust in the pic...it's all on the outside  If the watch continues to perform as it has for the last week; it's heading home on Monday. |

Now that it looks and runs good beat the hell out of it for the next week during "testing"  |

Now that it looks and runs good beat the hell out of it for the next week during "testing" I don't think Mikey would appreciate that. He already sent me a 7548 case because the original 7290 is all gouged and marked up. |
