Alternative Watch Parts Cleaner To The L&r And Elma


Lawson

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

 

I thought I'd post this up, so the information is here for people looking for a watch parts cleaner and can't find one.

 

As both Elma and L&R are no longer making their "tried and true" parts cleaner (as shown on Mark's Video), many people like me have been very frustrated looked for a second-hand one in good working order ... well stop looking ... you can buy one new!!

 

There is a company in India making a direct copy of the old Elma Super Elite Cleaner, right down to the shape of the jars!!

 

Here's the link:

The models are Janta 796 and 797A

I hope this is of some help to others like me who have been searching in vain to find a cleaner.

    • 1973 Bulova Diamond Excellency Q. 11 AN mov't manual wind. Love the UFO look of this one. Not sure the size of the diamond but looking around for an advertisement to see if it is.listed....strap is not original but the buckle is signed along with the crown. In excellent condition. 
    • Just missed it! I have a donor movement on its way. But thank you for the offer--I'll let you know if I need anything else.
    • My latest. Timex 2465. Replaced the crystal, caseback gasket and spring bars. All in less than $5US. Added a gray NATO strap I already had in stock.
    • I have some Gruen 510's in my donor pile if you need parts.
    • I've been intrigued by everyone's input here...so I decided to give this a shot. I bought the"typical" Pearl watch-machine basket and trays, for about $65. The trays are good,..the housing is a nightmare ! Thought it would take the mixer off my bench at anything above about 200rpm. The housing is cast of course,..and it's not "true" at all...so the harmonic vibration was insane. So,..I bit the bullet and bought the Elma housing and top. Not the baskets though, as the Pearl one's fit the Elma. Saved a bunch there. The basket and lid came to about $80 with shipping. The opening in the Elma top is 8mm, and the shaft that came with my stirrer is 6mm. I bought a piece of steel tube, 8mm O.D., and 6mm I.D. Cut off about an inch of the tube, and drove the rod into it. Gives a really snug fit.... Lightly champfered the leading edge of the 8mm section, then lightly tapped it into the top of the Elma lid. Spins like a dream now So... I have about $240 total into this including jars and steel mesh for the wave breakers   I'm pretty happy Best to you all   Randy
