Modd ideas for UPO Chrono

[Steve52]

I'm sending my UPO Chrono to The Zigmeister for service this week. The darn pushers stopped working and it needs a good service anyway.

I'm also getting the dial and hands lumed to match the genuine. Also going to see if he can waterproof it better.

I already have a fully franken UPO (chief AR, Gen dial, hands, crown, HE valve) and love it. I don't want to put that much money into the chrono version, but does anyone have any other modds to suggest?

Appreciate the help!

Sunken datewheel fix ?

Thanks! I sent it off yesterday and added the sunken date wheel fix to the list. I'll post pics when it returns.

do you mind if i ask how much it cost for the mods, for the franken UPO. I was wondering how much it would cost to mod my PO with either relumed hands or a gen dial.

Well I too sent my PO chrono to Smidsy for the sunken DW fix (& a floppy sub-dial)

turns out the movement was a bastard lovechild of two separate yet adulterous 7750s

And it can't be done since there's a solid metal plate blocking access to the DW

Not sure if i should blame the dealer for selling this as a serviced watch or the seller who funked it up to begin with

Hi bud don't suppose you've got the part number and website to get "HE"

valve from? Does The guy you send it to for modding supply parts? Cheers
