I assume you know that cap jewels have a flat side which goes to the pivot? No Seiko service manual ever mention this [emoji4]

23/9 to today is nothing. I shipped "priority" to another EU country and it took 3 weeks.

This is the set I've bought at the HK fair ($20? or 25?). I liked the barreled handle in case I meet a sturdy bracelet screw. Tips are excellent but sizes were not marked so I put my labels on it. Also showing the ridged tablet I bought to keep tools in place.My other set (on the tablet) is from India, and I had no issues whatsoever with it .

That is because the item was shipped 1st class international, which is not trackable. As mentioned above, USPS trackable shipping (priority intl) starts at three times as much.The weight of 68 gr. is perfectly appropriate for a watch movement in a padded envelope. Depending on the country, provenience and other factors, there is no invasive scanning of small packets, often more frequent is the use of sniffer dogs for drugs. However it is always possible that packages are inspected and value re-assessed by customs.

I hope it is still OK...but the description is not very encouraging....packages are usually scanned and a cushion won't show the same as a watch (metal)...IMHO. This is getting more and more interesting Micky. Worst case scenario, you are protected by ebay, aren't we all? I mean, when we buy stuff there?

Greetings, and welcome!

Hello Seiko and welcome

Not to mention, that in some movements the cap jewels have not the same dimensions.

So many people starting with the 7S, nice to hear! I remember a knowitall on another forum declaring that it was a bad choice [emoji13] But there you are (welcome) and the watch is (hopefully) running.

bling on the 80's baby!

Welcome from me too!

Welcome Seiko, look forward to reading your posts. Brian
