Hello everyone,

I'm looking for a bezel insert for my Bulova 98B320. Unfortunately, the watch took a hit and broke. I contacted the Citizen service center, and after wasting several months, they told me that the part is already discontinued. We're talking about a watch that is still in distribution, unbelievable! The Citizen service center is shameful!! Does anyone know where I can find the bezel insert? I'm attaching a photo of the watch. 

Thank you,

Andres

Hi Guys,

I've just bought a 1954 Bulova 23 and it is missing the crown.

Would anyone be able to help me as to what my options are as to finding a replacement?

If I can't find an original signed one, would anyone know what are the size dimensions for a generic replacement.

Thanks,

Geoff.

Identifying Accutron Transistors

I have recently gone down the rabbit hole of replacing all the bad components in my horde of accutron coils. I have already sourced the correct capacitors and resistors, but I am having issues finding what transistors were used on the 214 2 wire coils and the various different transistors used on 218 coils. From what I've gathered the 214 3 wire coils have CK722 or AY1117 transistors originally, and that a BC858A will work as a replacement.
