Image of the watch with new crystal. I am happy with how the watch has turned out, bought from Ebay for £12 as non runner, and managed to get a donor movement from ebay for around the same price, crystal was £14.24 from Cousins. The crown is quite worn but still easy enough to wind the watch, and the dial of the watch has a few scuffs and some dirt that wouldn't come off without me worrying about damaging the dial. -

The original water proofing for the crystal will not have been that great, so unlikely much will have changed there. I wear a lot of 70 -80 year old watches, and I'm always conscious of the weather ....will it rain....is my sleeve over my watch. So as lot as the fit feels secure and its not falling out... then 👍 -
I love these. I just got my first, a 5M42 0E39 (picked up on eBay) with the grey dial. I was keen to get the original band but alas, it came with an all stainless aftermarket. Where can I get an original band? I do hear about the rubber parts are usually pretty deteriorated. If you get an original can you re-use the metal bits and add them to a new rubber strap?
