That ones also in great nick. I was hoping mine would be here today. But Parcelfarce delivered it to the completely wrong address and are now making it very difficult for me to collect it.

Congrats mate, wear it in good health.
I love my Arnie and will never part with it
I need to get my chapter ring realigned though.
I just noticed the other day its a bit skewed.
The thicker indices don't match up with the markers on the dial on mine.
Being OCD as I am, it annoys me :roll:

I can't believe I missed this thread :-d

I bought this new in 83....on sale $125.00!!!!

It has a Tim Cook shroud, Noah's bezel insert, new crystal......I'll have Jack @ IWW install a Yobokies sapphire when I send it in for a lume job :-!









Cheers
Shannon

Great thread guys. I just discovered that my Dad's old diver that I used to wear in high-school is in fact a pretty beat-down H558-5009. The biggest concern aside from a dead battery is that it is missing the shroud around the case. Can anyone direct me to resources for getting this watch back into tip-top shape?

Yep, one post below yours ..... @undertheradar is the guy to contact !
He just did an awesome restoration on an Arnie. Yours can't be any worse than what he had to start off with !!!
Check out his thread....
