Flee Market Pickup - Militay Industries / MWC 1982 Pattern - Bezel Fell off

danielkr

Hey, I recently picked up this diver on the flee market for 90€

From what I researched it is an NH35 powered diver with screw down crown.

Thing is that most watches I see in this pricerange are the ones by MWC, which are look-a-likes and get sold on the same site.

Are they the same under 2 Brands or more to that story?

Also, my Bezel fell of on the first swim, what are the best glues to reinstall it in terms of water resistance.

Probably best to pay $5 for a proper self-adhesive ring. With watch modding, I always regret trying to save a few dollars on something. My aftermarket bezel inserts all arrived with these and no problems yet.

Of course, be mindful of the exact dimensions of your bezel - it may be exactly the same as the ubiquitous Seiko SKX, it may not.
