I have a SNK809 and it states clearly on the caseback and movement that it is made in Malaysia. On the other hand, I just purchased a SNXS77 and it says nothing about the...
I am planning to swap my 7S26C movement for the NH36A because it has hand winding.
I saw some videos of people swapping their 7S26C movement on the SNK809 with the NH36A.
So, I was wondering if the NH36A would fit on the SNKL23 and will the crown be detachable from the stem to be put on the...
Dis-assembled a 7s26B to find the centre wheel pinion snapped clean off (canon pinion floating around) and the lower hole jewel broken. The main plate is in excellent condition, so I'd like to simply replace the jewel and rebuild.
Struggling to find a source of these jewels 11.146?. What do...
I'm in the process of modding a few watches and need to get some more tools. The watches I'm modding are your basic skx007/009 with the trusty 7s26. My question to all you out there is what sizes of hand setting tools should I get? I understand that the 7s26 has hand sizes of 150/90/20 but what...
Mark Lovick, creator of Watch Repair Talk, has just put up a three-part (+ bonus) video tutorial showing him servicing a 7S26-0020:
Disassembly
Assembly: Gear train
Assembly: Motion work & calendar
Extra: Removing mainspring from barrel
They're in his usual clear style and easy to follow...

Hi all,
Would like to know if anyone has techniques or methods to remove and reinstall the Diashock shock springs found in the Seiko 7s26 movement.
I had no problems with the older triangular Diashocks found in the 7006 which i bought.
Pictures would be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance...
For sale is a Seiko SKX009 or SKX175 Diver’s Watch (Not sure which market). This watch is in good shape, but does have small wear marks. I’m not sure of the service history, but the watch appears to have a 2013 serial number. Twixt says it’s running at +8 sec/day. This watch does not come with...
Hi all,
Been lurking for a while but on delivery of my first Seiko diver (I have some other Japanese watches), thought I should say hello.
Bought for about US$50 at auction here in Japan, it's a 7S26-0050. Not pristine but works well, seems original and I'm super happy. It came with the oyster...
The pic speaks for itself. I was attempting to reinstall it in a 7S36b movement, and decided to pull it out to have another attempt. The balance wheel caught on the movement as I pulled (not gently enough obviously) and here is the result. Has anyone attempted to put a new spring and balance...
Hi all, first time poster. I'm currently doing the very helpful 7s26 diy at Nick Hacko's website. Due to my low post count I am not allowed to post links.
I'm almost done, and have learned a lot. I've managed to lose only one screw! I have a question for more experienced people here:
I am...
