I’ve always been interested in German watches but so far the only one I’ve pulled the trigger on is my Zeppelin Hindenburg. It’s a simple and inexpensive little dress watch but I have to say I love it. Definitely gets more wrist time than my Bambino But not as much as my Perpetual Watch Co. SC-03.
That was my main worry, I know a fair amount about autos but hardly anything about quartz. I’ve fixed a few stuck ones but moisture intrusion then being left to sit for decades. I wasn’t sure what could be done about it but if they could drop in an ETA that would be great.
thanks for the info!
He said the threads were destroyed but as a mechanic I know they would really have to mangle them to be unrepairable. I have to chase threads all the time after some gorilla decided to brute force something instead of stopping when they started to feel resistance. it is stainless so I have hope but the threads are so fine…
I’m sure the seal is shot after so long, it’s more of the movement that makes me worry.
I agree completely. I do have many quartz watches and some are among the favorites in my collection but… as a mechanic and lover of all things mechanical I do get a special feeling knowing a beautiful little machine is on my wrist.
