I don’t mind adjusting it once a week. I’ve got several automatic’s, so I’m used to it.

Nice watch Geuzzz. I have quartz, automatic, and manual wind watches. I prefer automatics. I’ve been a watch fan since I’m a kid. That’s more years than I’m willing to admit

Thnx! I actualy also have one manual wind steinhart pilot, but I almost alway wear one of my automatic divers. I like the “tool watch” feel of divers most.

My favorite watch is an ETA 6498-1 manual wind in a titanium Lum Tec Combat B1; I posted an image in above post.

My Seiko Monster is my favorite. I had to send it back for repair after a year of ownership. Got it back and it was running over 2 minutes fast a day! Brought it to a local jeweler, and he got it within 3 seconds a day. I love this watch!

From yobokies. You can email him for parts and mods at yobokies@yahoo.com.hk
You can see his stuff on his photobucket.
Also the lumpy strap is really Nice on Seikos (heavy). Google “Seiko lumpy” for inspiration.

Geuzzz, I’d love to mod my own watches, but my vision, and the steadiness of my hands isn’t as good as it was when I was young.

Mee too. I adjusted the spring from the movement but it didnt hit the spot after several attempts.
Now she has my “better” Sea-Gull as everyday watch. It keeps enough good time so not too much of adjusting….

That picture is way too big, but it is a cool watch.
Edit: picture seems better sized now.
