By proceeding with this listing, I fully release, discharge and forever hold harmless RWI, its owners, agents, administrators, employees and staff, and I release them from any and all responsibility and liability for any and all claims, costs, expenses, actions, demands, or damages related to the buying or selling of products and/or services offered in this listing.  By entering into and continuing with this transaction, I acknowledge that I am proceeding with this sale voluntarily and at my own risk, and that I have read the foregoing and fully understand the nature, extent, effect and consequences of its contents.

I dropped this Bronzo several months back and dislodged some of the decorative plates. At that time, the watch was still running, and the dislodged parts were not noticed. Unfortunately, I continued to wear the watch for several days, until it stopped. I sent the watch to a watchmaker in Dallas Tx who disassembled it and removed all of the dislodged parts which consisted of a couple of decorative plates and screws. He was not able to get the watch to run consistently and his conclusion was the loose parts damaged the hairspring. He told me that other than the possibly damaged hairspring, he couldn't see any other visible damage.
What it does: rotor spins ,Crown works, date changes and hands move
What it doesn't do: movement is dead

This is one of the models that DOES NOT use the "super clone 9000 movement. It appears to be one that uses the A7750 moverment with decorative plates. My watchmaker told me that probably the best solutions would be to either try to find the parts (hairspring) and replace that or find an A7750 movement and replace the whole dead movement . After this watch was damaged, I was able to find another 382 VSF v2, so I really wasn't inclined to spend a lot of time and effort trying to source parts to repair this one. So, if one is inclined to tinker with repairing watches, this might be a good project. I am selling it with a baseball glove strap that came on my VSF 382.
I'm looking for 100 USD . shipping in CONUS 15.00 USD , rest of world, probably not worth the crazy postage!! However if you want it and you live outside the CONUS, postage will be at my exact cost to ship . Disclaimer: I am not responsible for loss or damage, taxes or fees after the watch is shipped. I will provide the buyer a tracking number if one is available.
