Optel lcd watches

Post07 May 2013, 20:47

After buying my dead Seiko 0624 I was fruitlessly looking for a replacement module, haven't found one of course, but I did find something else!

The gold one needs some cleaning of the contacts, the stainless one works after removing the human crud and I've found a Seiko bracelet that's a perfect fit :)

Big watches :)

And I'm getting a new LCD display from Greg Zanoni for this one :)

From a half working Segtronic to three working ones :) (well the display is in the mail)

Module has the newer FE lcd only chip, but from 1973 if I'm correct
