Old Dial on ETA 2824

Hi charie,   

Whatever code of ethics you observe, do not amputate the dial please. Rare commodity  If original and in good shape. You may want to consider trading with one already footless plus some extra cash or one which  may even come with a cane or wheelchair, preferably trade with someone in your own locality, since post office will charge you the price of the watch for shipping costs.

Learn to be happy 

Regards joe.

Hi Charlie.  Why not build a dial foot soldering tool  They are quite straight forward to do either using a transformer or just a jig to hold all the bits together and solder on the foot where required.  google rettrofitting when required by Wesley R Door he has a simple design  in his book   or google dial foot soldering machine. There are some ready build Items at a price. I build my own using an old battery charger as the power unit and can be used stand alone with a small gas torch,  I will look up my pics if you require any help.
