Any thoughts on this version of the Rite Angle?  It is pink gold fill, 8AE movement with movement code shaped like an omega (1940).

(Note: original post edited to add more photos).

Does any one have a facated crystal for the shadow dial AA model ZZ.  I have been searching high and low for one for some time now and come up with nothing. I have the original crystal but it is not capable of being cleaned up, too many scratches and nicks. Please PM me if you have any info on where to acquire one. The diminsions of the original are:  17.53mm wide x 21.60mm long.

I know it has bin really busy with the Frankenbully issue but could you panel members have another look at this one.

Is this add enough for a 3 star for my 64 SurfKing?

For those who have answered,thank you.

Greetings all!

As my handle suggests I happen to collect watches of the 'purist' 24-hour variety, I was able to obtain this particular one not long ago, and was not able to find much information other than it was manufactured in 1960 (code M0.)  It has run flawlessly thus far, keeping very good time, and the hacking feature still works. I have not attempted to remove the case back to identify the movement (yet) as the facets for doing so appear to have been chewed up in places; I do not wish to add to the damage. It will obviously require some work.

Hello,

I am work on a 10AE and replaced the mainspring with a new one. When I wound the watch the mainspring end slips off the arbor. I tried bending the end a little tighter two different times and still slips. Any suggestions or should I punt and get another spring. The broken spring was steel and new one is alloy, I don't know of that makes a difference. It is a Bulova spring came in the cool holder. Thanks
