Holman Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 (edited) Greetings! Sorry if this thread ended up in the wrong section, this is my first post. I've got a Breitling Hercules 2004 replica missing the pin used to change time/date etc. Is there anyone with spare parts available or know where to get one? I'd really appreciate it as it's a top quality replica. With kind regards, Jonathan. Edited August 12, 2014 by Holman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Which movement has it inside? Gen 7750, gen 7753, asian clones of the previous, quartz.... ? Do you have the crown or you're missing that too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 My bad, I didn't know the name of it, but the crown is what I'm actually looking for. Not a pin. I've got no idea about what's inside tho, I got this watch from a friend a while ago in the condition it's in now, in hope to get it fixed.

GenTLe Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 At least you've to open its case back and post here some pictures of the movement (with counterweight in various positions to see below), otherwise we can't manage to help you... You'll need probably a new stem for Valjoux 7750, a stem extender and a crown. A stem is about 5$, an extender is about 2$, and the crown will be around 50$. Providing that it will fit the tube thread and that the keyless parts inside the movement are not messed up (I'd check them carefully: the crown and stem shouldn't just "pop out" that way!), put the upper costs together and add a good 150$ for the service. If I was you I'd go for a new one (i.e.: http://www.torobravos2014.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=25_32&product_id=745 )...

GenTLe Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 Strange movement... Never seen one like that... Not a 7750 for sure! Looks like a chinese cheap 21.6kBPH one. Which is the function of the subdials? second @3? The other 2? Anyway, it's a low end rep, not a top quality rep at all mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted August 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 It was bought in 2005 and is working properly still apart from the crown that recently fell off. A mates father us using his smetimes as well, and he bought his at the same time. But I'll let it go I suppose then. Thanks for the help mate!
