    Dear friend.

    My Favourite Citizen Eagle -7 ( my Father's)

    Dates 1979 ( he bought it while travelling in Japan)

    No changes.. The Date/day wheels are handpainted Japanese.
    Just cleaned and polished.

    I understand...

    I refurbished this HMT... This is also my Father's

    1964 model - i was even able to save the original chain that Dad used.

    Calibre HMT 0231. (based on Citizen 0201)

    I know a Master of HMT fixing. He is a very old Man I know and helps me in fixing watches.... When I cannot.

    He has spent his life fixing them. I am sure, I can help you get parts from here to fix your HMT'S.

    Do let me know... I will be happy to send them.

    thats kind but they was a passing fancy and when another member asked about buying one off me I sold him my whole collection as like them but taste change's don't they last few years have sold about half of my collection of watches and still down sizing as, I bought a steiny and a luminox and a few other mil watches that I seem to wear the most ..so those not getting any wrist time are being sold so yeah .. but thanks for the offer ...

    think I have a couple of cases and dials / hands in my watch bit box and a case too ..did have more but when some of the members needed parts i gave them what I had.

    my main issue with them was they was very not water proof remember getting caught out in the rain and was wearing one and the rain got in some how and did alsorts of damage so I moved on to heavy duty toolish watches
