Seiko 7A38 - by the numbers

This is actually one of my holy grails all categories. I really regret passing up one in Hong Kong a few years ago, offered fullset and mint condition for about 6000 HKD.

I have an incoming 7a38-7020 with a broken bracelet. Is this difficult to fix? Anyone had a bracelet break like this?

It's good to be back!

Aaaaw, I really wanted to download those Mp3 songs!
