CASIO EDIFICE


Recommended Posts

HI,I am not sure where i should post this question, if at all,but a friend of mine asked if i could clean up his Casio Edifice EF -101 and i duly obliged.it needed a new crystal.no problem.then it came to the bracelet.Casio no longer supply this model and the lugs are narrow (12mm) and the end pieces were some sort of plastic. i have hunted everywhere for replacements without any luck.any ideas how to fix this without too much expense? grateful for any suggestions (within reason:wub:)

As said above one possibility could be 3D printing but expect to pay at very least the cost of a new same watch. Maybe you can fix the end links with epoxy glue, sand excess material and paint.

    • Oh and the dc motors are an eye-watering £3.29 for 10. So this is the cheapest adjustable speed spindle for practising small turning, no excuse for not having a lathe now people 🙂
    • The site appears to be on the glitch in general.
    • Someone just made me aware that no images are showing in my post ( ). Could someone with the proper permissions check this? I believe the images are ones I uploaded to the site, but they could also be ones I shared from my OneDrive, which had an issue some time ago.
    • I would have jumped all over that set if it had come across my Ebay search results !  Very nice , well taken care of. I probably buy 10+ staking sets a month for my restoration hobby and think you found a very nice set, at a great price that should last you a lifetime. 
    • Here's another old tool that doesn't get used much, but has saved me many hours and headaches when it has been.   This is a depthing tool, but quite special. The depth can be set (or measured) very precisely with the micrometer to the right, with a direct reading of the actual center distance between the wheel and pinion. It originally came with a set of the little plates in the slots to the right that take the pivots (first pic), most of mine are missing but they can be made when needed. The section that takes the right hand wheel can be adjusted in height. And it can be set on a profile projector if needed to check things. This one is marked Tripet, but most I have seen are marked Hauser. All of them were made by a small company in La Chaux de Fonds (can't think of the name now).
