This entry was posted in Service, Swiss, Wrist Watches by Christian. The case isn’t entirely to my taste, but this is a great movement. The watch back has to be put back in with a press as the gasket needs considerable power to be put into place. I couldn’t find the original Omega gasket, but Cousins sell a generic one that is very much the same size and material. Now I press the hands on, making sure they are all parallel and don’t touch.īefore putting the auto-winder in, I put the movement into the case. The hour and minute wheel and the date wheel go in, and I’m ready to put the date ring in.ĭate wheel and plate in, next the day wheel and the dial. I’d rather have the function than the beauty 😉 If I would have gone for a highly-polished finish, it would have gotten too thin. I have cleaned up the very rusty pull-out piece as well as I could, but I don’t want to take off too much material. I turn the movement around and put the winding and setting gear in. They will disappear once the movement is properly cased. The random dots that appear come from the movement being in the movement holder, which is put into the timegrapher, so there are some additional vibrations. As I have wound the watch beforehand, the balance starts to swing immediately. I drop the balance and put the cock into place. I oil the top jewel before putting the balance back on the cock.
The balance wheel with the hairspring and the balance cock are cleaned separately to avoid damage to the hairspring. Silver-plated band wristwatches have a fashionable style, which will add a trendy touch to any wardrobe. We’ve already listed them above, but tis will hopefully make it easier to read and distinguish your watch.
1970s omega seamaster calibre 1020 day date serial numbers#
Here, it is more difficult to know the serial numbers and their exact dates. They have lightweight builds, which make them even more comfortable to wear for any activity. Omega started using ETA movements in some timepieces in the 1980s, and this complicates things when it comes to serial numbers.
The wheel bridge is screwed into place, and the pallet fork and pallet bridge are mounted. The bands are hypoallergenic, so these aluminium watches will be a great fit for those with allergies to certain metals. Now I put the wheels of the gear train in, ready to put the wheel bridge in. The barrel and barrel bridge are mounted. The new mainspring goes into the barrel and is lubricated. Then the parts go into cleaning fluid, then the rinse, and then they are dried.Įverything lined up and ready for reassembly. Now I’ve got a new mainspring and back gasket for Constantine’s Seamaster, I can put the watch back together again.Īs usual, I start by pegging out all the jewel holes and manually cleaning the parts to get rid of all the baked-in dirt.
