Seiko 7005-8020 Got a question for the Seiko experts. Did this watch come with this band originally? Dave Turner | |||

Another view Dave Turner | ||||

And one more Dave Turner | ||||

Most Seiko came with metal, divers with rubber strap not all but most that looks original to me (beads of rice) bracelet | ||||

Beads of rice so cool. Can I throw in a jomashop seiko 5 got last week. Green fun , this is a great cheap one. Another hairy wrist. | |||

Nice watch Mike. I've looked at those too. I thought my bracelet was original, that's mainly why I bought this one. Unfortunately it won't keep running. Sets fine, calendar and hands move easy, but it won't keep running. Next step, who to send it to? Dave Turner | ||||

Dave new seiko NH35 movement cost only $35 buy new movement replace with old hands and dial and you good for 10 years.IMHO COA will cost you more | ||||

Wow, That's awesome.. I didn't even consider that, let alone think a replacement might be available. So far, I can't even get the back off. But, I have a nice local jeweler who will do that for me. The watch wouldn't be original, but so what. This is an old 7005, run of the mill. Thanks Dave Turner | ||||

Update on the old 7005. Got the back off and discovered the automatic winder is not engaging. Wonder if that's just dirt. Dave Turner | ||||

Dave with screwdriver try to wind it on the screw with the arrow I made on picture | ||||
|
Thanks Peter, I already did that. It's been running great for nearly a day now. So, If I can figure out what's wrong with the push pull palls or the wheel it winds, or whatever else it is, I think it will be a good old watch. I'm going to open her up and take a hard look at that part again. Might be dirt? Dave Turner | ||||

Peter, et al, The Seiko runs steady for two days or so on a full wind. Think I've narrowed down the problem to loose bearings in the rotor. And I can see telltale signs of wear against the outer bridge plates. So, what is the cure? I guess mainly, where can I get parts? Or is the rotor repairable? Thanks, Dave Dave Turner | ||||

I would buy movement/parts from ebay and replace worn down parts/rotor to keep it original | ||||
|
Sounds like a plan! Dave Turner | ||||
