Hello everyone,

moving this topic from the welcome group.

I have repaired and old seiko 7005-8020 and now I need to replace the plexiglass and the two rubber gaskets. i have seen  announces in ebay but if some of you have some feedback on best place to get them, happy to hear.

Also if you have some hints on what products use to clean the stainless steel, it's kind of stained and i dont want to damage it using the wrong product.

some pics. Thanks all in advance.

Here you can find which parts it should be. Finding them could be harder? Gasket could maybe be sourched from cousinsuk. Or from Adrian at VTA . halfoeight on ebay. The crown gasket they have at cousinsuk but don't now about the caseback gasket. crystal should be a 310T11ANSO and that i have seen on Ebay .

Yes, Adrian is a great seller. Also Stefan at Schillachi61 and Vintageseiko4ever are a pleasure to deal, in my experience.
Best regards

Personally I would polish the crystal accurately, and use generic gaskets.


Thats what Adrian sells. I trust his stock as it's new "rubber" rather than NOS that's been sitting around for who knows how long.

I would have a look at Michael Bolton's vids. He's on a Seiko forum.


He's in the trade of abrasives so that side of things he knows a lot of and Is learning on restoring watch cases and bracelets. By no means an expert but you can appreciate the end results [emoji106]

You may find some of your movement parts are interchangeable with the 7S26 but I'm not sure. Guys on the forum with more experience may wish to comment. I do know the 7S rotor will fit a 7009.
Great job getting your Dad's watch up and running

I think parts may also be interchangeable with others in the 7xxx series .  7002 [?] ,  7006 , 7009 ... I am moving and have already packed my manuals of interchangeable parts . 

Maybe JDM knows .

    • interesting video nice to see the machine what it can do now I wonder what it costs and I'm sure it's not in my budget. Plus the video brought up questions but the website below answers the questions? What was bothering me was the size of his machine 4 mm because I thought it was bigger than that? But then it occurred to me that maybe they had variations it looks like four, seven and 10. With the seven and 10 being the best because way more tool positions in way more rotating tools. Although I bet you all the rotating tools are probably separate cost https://www.tornos.com/en/content/swissnano   Then as we been talking about Sherline. Just so that everyone's aware of this they have another division their industrial division where you can buy bits and pieces. I have a link below that shows that just in case you don't want to have the entire machine you just need bits and pieces. https://www.sherline.com/product-category/industrial-products-division/   Let's see what we can do with the concept I explained up above and bits and pieces. For one thing you can make a really tiny gear very tiny like perhaps you're going to make a watch. Then another version the center part is not separate it is all machined from one piece. Then fills gear cutting machines have gone through multiple of evolutions. A lot of it based on what he wanted to make like he was going to make a watch unfortunately eyesight issues have prevented that. Another reason why you should start projects like this much sooner when your eyesight is really good or perhaps start on watches first and then move the clocks then local we have from the industrial division? Looks like two separate motors and heads. Then it's hard to see but this entire thing is built on top of a much larger milling machine as a larger milling machine gave a very solid platform to build everything.   Then like everything else that had multiple generations are versions the indexing went through of course variations like above is one version and the one below was the last version. Now the version below I mentioned that previously and somewhere in the beginning to discussion and somebody else had one in their picture. As it is a really nice precision indexing. Then I wasn't sure if I had a the watch photos here is his unfinished watch. No he wasn't going to make a simple watch like none of his clocks were simply either what would be the challenge and that.    
    • Use a Portwest Howie lab coat. They are the biological type so they have tapped cuffs so you don't end up getting the loose cuffs of normal lab coats catching everything. 
    • Some of the Chinese tools ae great and can be purchased at a fraction of the price of Swiss ones, some are complete garbage and some I'm convinced are coming out the same factory as the branded ones.
    • I found this string about this problem. I've not gone through it all, but I believe it also mentions making a spring. If not in this string, the info is online.
    • No, I now realise it’s broken😥 ive looked for one online, but v. Expensive! im going to service as is, in the hope that  one turns up. Thank  you.
