I'm halfway to get as many 7S parts as needed for this.

No wonder some of those movements come with defects after all the acrobatics and manufacture was sent to Malaysia to be achieve production!

Nice Seiko Chrono! ...but you didn't use the parts from the you tube link, that's why it works!

Great job!

Cheers,

sorry I seem to have lost my build photos but basically I purchased the movement and back part of watch from ebay . I then spent about 6 months , off and on , scouring for a face , front , glass , seals etc . I had hands available in my parts . The front came from peru with a back 7016 5000 which had sample written on it but was in new condition and as I only needed the front for the 7016 5001 back that I had it was perfect . The movement was stripped cleaned and rebuilt but no parts were replaced . Face , date wheel etc I found in the U.S. I think the watch cost me approximately £130 to finish inc all parts so it is now in my collection . I only do this as a hobby but have a purpose built brick shed with everything I need to do watch repairs .
