Tag Heuer Calibre 7

[Deomandinka]

Hi Guys, does any know where I might get spares for one of these. I must admit I have never seen a watch quite as battered as this without the owner knowing anything about it.

I will post some photos and you will not believe what you see.

In the mean time I'm after. 
A great wheel (intermediate wheel)
The train wheel bridge
third wheel

And two of the movement holding brackets.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi A lot depends on your location  In the UK Cousins uk.  H.S.Walsh,  A.G.Thomas or the USA  Jules Borel ( look on the database)  Esslingers,  Otto Frei. These are the popular suppliers of parts.

I use all of these and none of them seem to sell Tag Heuer parts, unless I've missed something.

I can obtain Rolex parts easer than these lol

As a general notion, please be aware that there is no secret place for parts. Everyone can do the same searches with the same results, and the well known suppliers are always the same. Have a read of our pinned topic

Hi JDM, the reasons for my post are not as simple as you seem to be assuming. The reason I posted this is because usually my fellow watchmakers will offer parts, as in a good watch community we tend to swap parts and generally talk to each other as equals. This is now the second time you have appeared to a little condescending towards me. This is really not appreciated. I joined this forum as I was hoping that I would find people with similar interests rather than someone who would take delight in trying to act superior for no good reason.

I am still waiting for an apology from you for accusing me of joining this forum without an introduction.

But as we both know, rather than offer this you just removed your post. This was very very rude.

If you cannot be more constructive or at least less condescending, I would ask that you keep your comments to yourself and allow me to share my knowledge and information with people who are interested in swapping information and parts rather than taking opportunities to put me down whenever you see the chance. This is not helpful and is not appreciated.

I appreciated that you have been in this forum for a while however it doesn't give you the right to be like this with people.

I have been a watchmaker for over 40 years and actually have an account with Boley (From your picture above) however some manufactures insist that they do not send parts across to the U.K. Seiko, Tag etc and insist that they are sourced from the country where the buyer is located. The has it's own set of problems as a lot of the specialist suppliers base in the U.K. will not deal with small watchmakers.

Next time please remember, not to jump to conclusions without checking first. This is the second time you have done this and hopefully now you have read this, the last.

If I have misunderstood you, then I apologise, but at the very least you need to change the way you post answers. I am nearly 60 and do not need to be talked to like a child.

I was looking at the Sellita but the bridge is different. I did have a look at the 2892 and the bridge is actually the same as the Calibre 7. So thanks for that. I don't deal with Tag very often as I am 99.9% Seiko. I didn't know that these 2 were the same. Everyday is a school day

Good, altough this fact didn't surface from your introduction to the forum, which says:

I have been refurbishing repairing and servicing Seiko's for many years. I do special requests (None Seiko's) when the manufactures don't seem able, such as Rolex and Tag.

This is my second job. My primary job is swinging around on ropes on oil platforms doing Non destructive testing.

It is you that will please excuse me if I have posted the same words and link which can be best suited to beginners, I can't see how that is offensive or assuming. Now, to avoid further unpleasant verbiage in this topic, of which i have had some from you above already, I whish you the best luck and I'm done with it.
