Restoration of a Cave Divers Seiko Watch - Rusty 1980s Seiko Slim Turtle 6309-7290

This time I´m restoring an old Seiko divers watch from the 1980s. It´s a Seiko Slim Turtle with the Seiko 6309 automatic movement. The watch was worn by Nicolas, a French cave diver, on every dive for over 20 years. One day this bond broke in an accident and he turned to me to get his watch working again. Nicolas dried the watch in a cup of rice after the accident, but the condition is beyond bad and every local watchmaker refused to repair it. The case is covered with scratches and dents, the glass is cracked and the salt water has ruined the dial, hands and movement. I hope you liked this restoration, if so, like, comment and subscribe ;) Subscribe to my channel: Music: Local Elevator by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.
