cwfritz 0 Posted January 1, 2016 Hi - I have a S/S 5500 case set, a 3000 movement with S/S crown, and what appears to be a 1016 dial and hand set, all authentic, and (assuming it will all fit together) I would like to find a watchmaker who will overhaul the movement and assemble everything into a wearable watch, using new gaskets and seals. Can any of you point me in the right direction? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichardMiami 4 Posted January 1, 2016 To start you off in the right direction, I will move this to GD where it will be more widely read. Happy New Year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daffy 105 Posted January 1, 2016 I'm not awake yet. There are all sorts of watchmakers in the Arlington, VA area. I am suffering from Yogi Berra syndrome, it seems... Ever get the feeling that you are getting Alzheimer's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
