4006-6027 for repair.



This 6027 had been sent to me by its owner for repair as at some time it must of had a good bump to break the dial feet, this does seem to be a common fault with the Bell matic i have now repaired/replaced dial feet on over 20 dials and it is not model specific, all models can suffer with the problem. Another problem that can occur due to the feet breaking is that it can put strain on the day date driving wheel causing the driving pin to bend or break rendering it useless as far as day and date changing. Apart from the above problems it just needed a replacement crystal and refurb to the blue outer bezel and a general clean up.

27 Jewel 4006-6020

A nice cushion case 6020 27 Jewel, not has common as the 17 Jewel model on it's original bracelet from June 1970.
Has received.
As you can see by the above picture it was in good condition when i received it just a worrying mark at 6 o'clock, but after removing the bezel and crystal it was just the old DNA from the previous owner/s, so just a general clean up and she is a minter.
After a clean up, very nice.
