Hey @HectorLooi Yeah, that's most of Indian watchmaking. Most watchmakers run on 'Jugaad' (look it up) Watchmakers have offered me to drop in a new movement instead of servicing, (both quartz and automatic) stating its cheap. When you talk about finding ST96 movements in a lot of watches I might know the general area and shops, these watches are coming from. Some watchmakers massacre the watch from the inside but to an unsuspecting onlooker its all tip-top. Couldn't agree more with everything you said. Most dealers have a watchmaker who can make the watch "retail ready" for cheap, some polishing, a bit of swabbing and Rodico, topped up regulating. -
I have removed the rheostat from the Mastermatic. it is a Rex Rheostat 50 watt type k-50. I can't find a exact replacement. Does anyone know where to find one or another one that will work? -

In this case, definitely not an expert but comparing the case and the movement?, it looks correct. -

Looks like an early 50s dial. But thought I would ask the experts!
