Would a hair spring cause a watch to run super fast?

would you know if a hairspring would cause a watch to run super fast like 45 min fast? Had a guy look at this and told me it was a bad hairspring then said 100 bucks to fix it. Needless to say i still need this advance in time fixed. was the price fair or was he looking for fast money

What is the meaning on this dial?

I have a friend lost his Bulova Accutron a few years ago playing golf. The watch was given to him by his father who has passed and now he is really upset about the loss.  I wanted to gift him another one and asked what it looked like. He told me that the dial had no markers and had a duel date window. I couldn't find a Accutron with no markers for sale and came across this dial. Now I have to find the right hands to go with this dial. Now the TS has me confused. I looked around on the internet and found that Ts is Tritium H-3 used as an luminous material.

So I already had one of these with the original band....

But not in the original box with the original band!!  Woot!

I'm okay with the price.  Essentially what I paid for the other one I have without the box.  

So now... I guess we see which one is more box worthy and maybe re-"gift" the other. =)
