Midlands where? It's a big place.

I could be classed as living in north midlands or south north west, but would get rather annoyed if people called me a Brummie or a Scouser.

No offence intended to Brummies or Scousers, I'm sure you wouldn't like to be called anything else.

Hi Bry

My 6309 finally gave up the ghost (the one that you re-lumed the dial and gave me- gratis!!), it received a massive 'bash' on my garage door but was still going for a few hours, all power ceased though by the evening and all efforts to coax it into life have failed ::)

I have a dress6309 with crown @4 o'clock that i may fit in or alternatively i have another 6309 divers watch with a crusty old dial, i could place your dial on that..

It wasn't going to last much longer as the winder tube was on it's last tiny bit of thread- it's like losing a near and dear one :(

The dead one..

BLackpool illuminations!!!

The 'other' one!!- Feeble by comparison, though the hands seem a better match!

Cheers, John :)

Sorry to hear the bad news John!

Any interest in having the 6309 cushion cased DLC'D at trade price? :D

Also the best place for NOS 6309 movements is Yorkshire watches price around £43.

Do you have any spare bezels I can try as I have a very loose 6309 bezel case fit here?

Hello Bry

Sorry i'm not familiar with the term DCL'D :scratch:

Being a Yorkshireman, i like cheap!! rather than buying a movement, i have this and my use it as a donor (when i get around to doing it!!

(http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/johnbaz/watches/S-6309dress.jpg)

It's not seen in the pic but the winder is @ 4o'clock so it should be OK..

Sorry Bry, i only have the two divers and no spares :(

I got the parts for mine from a chap in Norway (can't remember his name but he's on TZUK a lot) and the rest of the parts (ill fitting hands) from Ramon (the watch collector) in Hawaii (or some other exotic location), through Ebay...

Arr oks no worries,

Yep those 6309 dress watches have nicely hidden crown.

Am 99% sure you can now buy 6309 hands and crowns direct from the Romford firm.
