I'm just about to place an order with Cousins and wondered if anyone has used Seizaiken watch batteries before & what results they've had ?.

 

                                                         :thumbsu:     or      :thumbsd:   ??

 

Many thanks Phil.

Hi Bob and atimegoneby

I have just recently used this brand (bought also from Cousins) a good battery that Cousins have just started to stock...

Best Wishes

No problem Bob and atimegoneby,

I think I also remember reading somewhere that this Brand has been used by Seiko for quite a while in their quartz range, although am not sure about this, someone maybe able to correct me on this...

Best wishes

Darren

Yes, I believe in the CousinsUK brochure I got it says they are made by Seiko (but I may be wrong). In any case, being good and priced right they are a welcome addition to battery choices. Having them competing against other brands may hopefully have all of us benefit by impacting prices all around...or so I hope.

      Bezel removal tool (chinese) problems

      By rjenkinsgb · Posted

      I've got a similar one, but never had to use it yet. I would try a couple of M4 (or whichever) washers under each blade, and possibly longer countersunk machine screws, either hex or torx drive so the blades can be really solidly locked down. It does not appear there can be much depth of thread in the blocks above the slide shafts, so matching the screw length to the blade height is probably quite important.

      2650G "successful" disassembly and reassembly

      By rjenkinsgb · Posted

      Don't the holders have different sizes front & back? I started out with some cheap cast metal ones, but had a lot of trouble with the movements coming loose, so I got a pair of Bergen ones from cousins, a 4039 and a 4040. Those a well made, properly machines and between them they cover from around 10mm up to all the pocket watches I've had so far.

      Seiko 7005-7100 Crystal replacement

      By levic900rr · Posted

      Hi Friends, As you might have seen yesterday I'm on to my second restoration and its a Seiko from the 70's (i'm pretty sure) I need to source a new Crystal but I'm struggling to figure out how to identify what type it is. (I did some forum searching but couldnt come up with anything) I'm pretty sure its mineral glass (and that lines up with what I've read online) the outside is flat, there is a pretty good sized bevel around he outside edge, but the inside is surface is concave. It measures 31mm in diameter, and at its thickest (around the edge) its 2.1mm. I was hoping to hop on Esslinger to order up a replacement but that hasn't worked out. I can't find anything of this style.  Any ideas? Thanks so much.

      Gruen case back removal - snap or screw?

      By rjenkinsgb · Posted

      I'm having difficulty finding an exact match to the spare case & what movement it originally had? The nearest I can find are the Power Glide, with a 560RSS movement and Borgel case - though that model has a deep case back for the automatic works, while my case has a flush back. https://gruen.watch/?product=gruen-geneve-23-precision-power-glide-560rss https://www.birthyearwatches.com/product/c1959-gruen-power-glide-automatic/ The case shape and crown detail are identical to that, and dimensions match except for depth.   The 560 appears to be the same diameter as the 510 and from the same era, so it does seem possible that it's for a less common 510 version? I just have to find an appropriate dial to suit it.
