Re: Scubapro 500

Is the 'haze' on the topside or underside of the crystal? Without having the watch in hand I'd guess it's on the underside and is most likely vaporized oil. I had the same problem on a number of my watches that probably hadn't received a service in a very long time. Easy fix; pop out the movement an...

Re: Aquadive Model 50 Help please

OK so I finally found some help on this watch and figured out how to attach pics. The help came from Paul over at Electric Watches who knows his way around this watch and expertly helped me disassemble it. I really can't thank him enough. And no I did not make the foolish mistake of draining the oil...

Re: New (Old) Aquadive Model 50

Hi Matt I see you received a warm welcome here also. It seems that some guys have been here a long time and are a tight knit family more interested in drinking beer and poking fun at each other. Which I get but it can be a little disconcerting for the uninitiated genuinely seeking advice. Anyway wel...

Many members of the SCWF (where I am active) are keen to tinker on their watches so I guess ...

Aquadive Model 50 Help please

Hi All This is my first post here. I am a member of SCWF and my focus until recently has been Japanese. Of course I became distracted by other sexy european divers from the 70's which has lead me to the acquisition of an Aquadive Model 50 (and a Certina DS-3 Super PH1000M...which I'll post later). I...
