Cheers, all

I have a 1994 seiko 7002-7009 that I purchased second hand in 1995.  It still operates and keeps reasonable time but to the best of my knowledge it has never been services.  I would like to have it cleaned and lubricated and I need to replace all the seals.  While I have it apart I am considering upgrading the crystal and perhaps the movement.  The hands and face still look good but the lume has seen much better days so I am considering replacing those as well.  This leads me to several questions.

1) what is a reliable resource to source parts for the 7002-7009

2) which parts from other seiko models will fit the 7002-7009 (will it take an SKX bezel, etc.)

3) will the 7002-7009 take one of the more modern seiko movements that hacks and hand winds?

Thanks for any help and tips.

    • The ones I have opened also do not have a pry point , hence the reason for the tool. The watch is clamped in the tool and a blade is screwed into the seam, the blade being chamfered lifts the back then the screw shaft is turned and the back comes off have a look on Ali express for case back removal tools
    • I don't think I need to know more about the question now, so please don't write anything related to the topic. Thank you to everyone who wrote. Have a nice day.
    • It's an exhibition back so no access as you suggest.
    • I have no experience with this watch, but looking at the pictures from the ebay listing linked above, it looks like the outer metal bezel at the back of the watch may not be part of the case proper.  It looks like the watch and strap are sandwiched together, and an inner case may push out of the rear bezel towards the front of the watch.  A case style similar to the Roamer watches where the crystal, movement and caseback pushed out through the back of an outer bezel, only in reverse - this one may push out towards the front.  To test this, you would need to hold the watch, dial down, supporting the dial side of the watch around the edge of the bezel without touching the bezel itself. Then push down carefully on the inner metal ring you can see at the back of the watch. I’m speculating here, proceed at your own risk. Hopefully someone with hands on experience of these watches can chime in! Best Regards, Mark
    • Thanks, Mark. That's the kind of reassurance many of us wanted to hear! Yes, life is unfortunately unpredictable, and it would be a shame if the many dedicated WRT: ers became stranded if, god forbid, something happened to you and WRT stopped working.
