Favre Leuba Sea King 61092


Recommended Posts

Hello all. I hope you are keeping safe and well, and in the nicest possible sense, making the most of the lock down.

 

So, I’ve completed a repair on a Favre Leuba Sea King ref 61092 and just need to source the correct crystal for it. I believe the crystal should have a tension ring fitted to the inside against which the dial is seated. The problem I have is the watch was sold to me with the incorrect crystal in it so I have no reference for a new one.

 

This is a long shot, but has anybody repaired/refurbished a FL sea king ref 61092 and made a note of the correct replacement crystal please?

 

Wishing you all well

 

Deggsie

    • Welcome to the forum, enjoy. I have a varimatic that went  out of sequence because it’s hydronic oil ran very low. Must admit it’s still in my garage just know time to fix it. Purchased a cheap Indian Junta/ sonic Pearl as a stop gap a few years ago and it still performs perfectly so no incentive to fix the Varimatic. 
    • The plate is OK, thanks. It seems the answer to my question is that this is a 'hack' & for me another reminder that in general, one won't be the first person to be tinkering with an old timepiece!. As you day, I've been fortunate to have gotten some good advice and, just as important, encouragement. I've been lucky then not to have the balance spring break as a result of my novice 'ministrations' - but I did remember to 'stroke' rather than bend per se. The clock is of sentimental value to the owner so I'm relieved to have now got it running to time with the support & encourage of forum members like yourself.
    • Recently purchased a L&R Varimatic knowing that the piston does not fully rise in the cylinder. The likely cause is air in the system. The manual calls for using a bleeder cup, which is as rare as hen's teeth.Does anyone have any experience with this issue and if so, how did they resolve it?
    • Thanks ww, its maybe not as much of a bodge trick that i thought it was. 
    • Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum. We all look forward to your contributions and continued involvement.  It would be nice if you told us a little about yourself.
