Will this Forum be changed to the North American Watch Forum? What is the prOcess for that? Is some sort of re-organIzation required.

My Orbita Experience
Hello All,Obviously new to the forum - been snooping around and have been posting here or there on occasion. Have been a bit of a WIS and am diving in a bit deeper (and boy, the water is DEEP). But to my point - I need a winder and was looking at Orbita.Experience so far - I had some questions, so I ping'd Kevin and ultimately talked with him on the phone. It was a pleasure, he answered my questions and took my order. He let me know that the shipment would not leave until today (Tuesday) due to the Easter holiday (I ordered Thursday - late). It actually shipped yesterday and is in transit for delivery in a couple days.I just wanted to let those know who were looking, that dealing with Kevin and Orbita has been a pleasure. I'll keep you posted once the winder arrives!B

Need some help locating watch parts...
Hi all,I was hoping someone here might be able to help me locate a few replacement parts for an old Seiko 150m quartz divers watch I have. I believe the caliber is 7548-7000.I wore this watch while I was in the army some 20+ years ago, so it has lots of nicks, scratches and dents, but has a great deal of sentimental value. I'd like to get it running again, but when I opened up the case back, I found the battery retaining strap was bent, and was missing one of the two screws that hold it in place. It probably needs a new case back gasket as well.Aside from sending it in for repair, would anyone know where I might be able to locate the parts so I could swap them out myself?Thanks very much in advance!:):)Best regards,Geoff

Incoming! My First patek! 5990
Well,A couple years ago I was beating around the bush on a patek nautilus 5980 steel. I was told Patek might be discontinuing that model and introducing a newer model, I didn't know if it was for sure or not but I decided to wait and take my time. Finally I had heard the discontinuation of the steel 5980 and the introduction of the new 5990 dual time launched in 2014. I am so happy I waited. I feel the 5990 has the best of both worlds. The watch features a date and a chronograph complication. In addition to the chronograph, it has a second time zone featured by the skeletonized hour hand, which can be hidden behind the luminescent hour hand when not in use in order to create a less cluttered look. The watch also has two day/night apertures for local time and home time. What a watch... From my research, it was said that several case modifications had to be made to fit this movement into the nautilus without changing the classic look of the model and to maintain a thin watch.The nautilus
