I took my 7549 7009 to a reputable jeweler for a battery change ,when I went to pick it up I was informed it had an electrical problem and was dead.It was working when it went in???Anyway I need some parts to bring it back alive.I have had it since 1982 and its a friend I don't want to lose.Its been a few years since I picked it up and have decided to tackle it now.When I started to pull it apart I noticed the Teflon gasket for the crystal is missing.I will need a breakdown to see what else is missing or incorrect.I had always changed the battery myself and should have done it myself that last time too.
I would like to purchase a set of new gaskets and some silicone watch grease for it as well as the electrical parts needed including a new battery.I will have to test the coil ,circuit board and the module to see what is bad and what is not or I could replace the assembly.From what I was told by the brain that worked on it last there are no parts left on earth for this model.I would rather use new parts but am willing to put in used.Any help locating electrical parts and a gasket set would be great. Thanks,Bob ,the Suwannee River Pirate

Thanks for all the assistance and replies.I always replaced the battery myself my self till that time.My health is going south and I trusted the wrong guy.I just noticed that there are two missing screws at the edge of the circuit panel.I am going to research some pics of the backside of a 7549 movement capsule to see if they are indeed missing. I hope they are not used on this model as I am already peeved about the teflon ring crystal gasket and it seems there was another battery shield missing if I am not confusing it with my Citizen dive watch.This jeweler might very well need tuned up himself.
