Post subject: Changing Crystal on 6027 Help Please |
 |
|
Just bought a 6027 that I would like to change out the crystal. I bought a new crystal here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400081526270&ssPage Name=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Now how do I go about changing it? I have the case back wrench to open the case , a set of loupes and the proper screwdrivers.
Do I need anything else, besides some directions from you guys who are smarter than I, to accoplish this task ?
Thanks guys !! |

will be the best man to explain this relatively easy task.
On the tiger's recommendation I get my crystals from TRYABIDFORIT at ebay UK price 6GBP plus cheap shipping rate to Aussie.
Here's 3 I prepared earlier, lol

 even tho' I rarely use them myself, I actually typed in "removal" and had a few interesting "hits."
While we await responses from other enthusiasts, you may want to check out this previous forum post:

John,
Thanks for the link. It sounds like I can do everything but putting in the new crystal as I do not have a crystal press.
Is this a must or is there an alternative method tool to get the new crystal installed.
Does this appear to be the proper crystal?
Thanks All!! |

OK Gang,
Thanks for all the great info !! I received the Bellmatic 4006-6027 today.
All appears to be in good working order and the case appears to be in good shape. The crystal not so much. But I have the new one in hand so I'll follow all the instructions and break it all down later tonight.
I will post my success on Sunday.
Thanks all again... |

Hi:
Are the crystals sold by the user TRYABIDFORIT, acrylic or mineral glass?
Thank You |

Hey folks. Hope you don't mind me resurrecting this thread from the depths of time.
My first post.
Just bought my first Bellmatic - a 6027.
The crystal is a little damaged and a google search has brought me to your door.
Could anyone confirm that this particular crystal will fit my lovely new 6027 please?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350331554381&_trk parms=tab%3DWatching
I did email the seller, who seems like a nice guy, but isn't 100% sure.
Thanks for any help.
Tony |
