Thks ClockBloke :)
Just got it off of ebay, advertised as working, only the alarm doesn't work, it winds but doesn't reach a stop point, so e mailed the seller and got a partial refund, so cost me £29.99 and tbh not at all fussed about the alarm :) I would like to get it working though, only there is no one in this neck of the woods who does that sort of thing, unfortunately :(
I am still well pleased though :)
Sounds like a total bargain! You have some nice retro's and that vintage JW Benson was super to see on here yesterday. I've had a lot of his clocks and actually use some of his personal tools working on the clocks so I have a weak spot for his work. Congratulations!

I am keeping track on all of them, well listing a ..........
" Dreamer's List ")
KON TIKI.... I have the book if you want it ;) but reckon you mean that lovely dive watch that came up on google when I put those words in!

I like the watch with the reactor sign on the back too but I must admit it's the sign that does it for me :eek:

You know you have it bad when you go to bed scratching your head about a problem your having with a Stelux strap and you dream the solution! Which actually worked!!!!!!! Now if I can have the same type of dream where I can work out how to get Nicole Kidmans underware off........... :wavetowel2:

Fresh out of the box tonight 7018-8000.... posted in Japan on the 29th of May, picked it up this evening from the local post office! Can't believe how quick it got here.
It comes with a new crystal and as far as I can see the only problem is the clutch is slipping so the minute recorder moves when it should stay at zero.Everything else works, the flyback, day/date change and so far it's keeping time.

Ok better update my wish list again! I have the 7016-8000 which I love but that is sooooo classy I should never be allowed to own it classy! :cool::cool::cool:
