All series are very popular with the 6309 & earlier variants fetching ever higher prices while the 7002's remain reasonably priced. 7S26 variants are still available new - the SKX007K can be bought for around £150. If buying older models beware, there is a lot of over polished, poorly serviced junk out there. As for the mods its really a matter of personal taste, some are good, some are bad, some are indifferent. Don't shy away from scrappers, they are good watches to hone your skills on, most of the original parts are available, although dials, bezels & hands are normally after-market. Happy hunting.

Well done Kieth, I was sure you would do a good job. The owner will be well pleased to get that one back on his wrist where it should be, unless you persuade him to sell it to you. ;)

Wow thanks Lawson! I just happened to have the same issue and solved it, so why not sharing it? Mark shares his experience with all of is, so for me it is only natural to give back to the community what I know, even if it is not so much :p

Hello and welcome, goldentalon34. My guess is that you're not delivering energy to the escape wheel. Possible causes: the mainspring isn't wound, the gear train is misaligned or has a broken pivot somewhere, and "gunk in the junk."
