Restoration of a Vintage Tissot Seastar Automatic Watch

Ғылым және технология

This Tissot Seastar 46587-3X needs a full restoration. There are many small issues that have to be fixed. ASMR, no talking.
The watch is powered by cal. 2571. The base movement was developed jointly by Tissot and Omega and also used in some Omega watches without the day complication with a cal. number 1481.
The watch is running poorly. Crown is loose. Day/date complications have several issues.
All case parts are restored. The movement is cleaned and inspected, then re-assembled and oiled. Missing parts are replaced.

    Thank you for watching! Only the flat stake and round punch are shown in this video, but in addition I used a concave punch to close the part that extends inside the barrel from the other side, and a concave stake with a bigger round punch to create a slight depression around the hole to adjust the endshake.

    Thanks for watching! I believe in the early 70's or late 60's. They even released a watch made almost completely of plastic in the early 70's. It was a complete flop and couldn't compete with the quartz watches that were so popular.

    Thank you for the offer and for trusting me enough to ask! My policy so far has been to basically only work on my own projects. I assume you're based in the US? I'm in the EU and the shipping, import declarations etc. would also make it quite complicated. For those reasons I'll have to decline the offer for now. I truly appreciate your understanding and support. And who knows, I may change the policy at some point.
