Hi Dan, welcome and enjoy it here....

I would completely disassemble it and clean it thoroughly, best chance of get it running again.

Some watchmakers work on replica's, the problem is to get the right spare parts...The asian clones 2824, 2836 and 7750 have interchangeable parts with the Eta ones.

Welcome mate, enjoy WRT, a lot of knowledge on the forum available...

I am collecting for about 25 years or so,.....buying at auctions and fleamarkets...giving them a second life and selling to pay for the hobby. Not able to make a living out of it but I am happy with the balance I have...:)

welcome and enjoy, keep on practising and you will get there....

HMT's, Tissot's, Bulova, Milos, Sorna, Edox, Rado....mostly using plastic spacerrings..Mumbay "refurbished"

Pro work for an amateur m8,...so you restore dails ect?

if it is only for practising, just buy scrap movements from Ebay....

seems like Mumbay stuff?

welcome aboard, enjoy the knowledge on here

wow, that is a nice piece for practising some cleaning skills....:)

I have these lamps, they really do a great job, they have a dimmer and you can set warm to cold light

Hard felt buffing wheel and polishing rouge should do the trick if the crystal is not too old/thin....
