Thanks guys :D

I was just told that I can get a full set of watch tools and the TZ courses for Christmas so I have something to look forward to!

The Tuna is a Japan only model, the US Seiko repair center won't work on Japan only watches.  They have special gaskets that are replaced when they change the battery too.  From what I hear, the Tuna comes with a first battery change free coupon hand6.gif

I got the PayPal points from my summer time watch spree, heheh.  toon1.gif

I actually have two more coming after this, one is a parts watch to finally get my 80's Orient King Diver up and running, and a Citizen auto diver that I don't have, the NH8050 "Dolphin", $100 on the Bay yourock.gif  It will join my Citizen NY2300, NY0040 and NY0054 (and my son's NH8030).  I love those Citizen auto divers, one of the biggest bangs for the buck along with the Mako and 8926 IMHO. That's gonna have to hold me for awhile!  That and repairs, I have a Poljot Sturmie chrono and V-E out for repair to Russia, my O&W 7765 went out yesterday, another Poljot 3133 that has been nothing but trouble, a Seiko 6139 "helmet" that I want to send to Ken Setser, and my wedding present, a Seiko world timer that needs a new movement.  That outta keep me busy!

Cheers,
Griff

P.S.  I want one of those Vostok-Europe '07 Expeditions in Orange like Steve's, maybe if I am real good Santa will slip one in my stocking, lol
