I bought this solar-powered multiband Casio Lineage for $30 USD on Yahoo Auctions, cheap due to scratch on the mineral crystal and a stuck pusher.
Disassembly upon receipt revealed the waterproof seal had been compromised leading to a bit of rust on the inside. I tore down the case and removed the scratched glass. Soaked the case in WD-40 and thoroughly cleaned the pushers. Replaced the glass with a $15 USD sapphire crystal and reassembled with a tropic strap. Now works perfectly.
This is now a regular on the rotation. Such a beautiful watch for the price, offering world time, stopwatch and alarms. It contrasts well with my automatic divers and retro digitals. While I'd like to get another Lineage, perhaps in white, I think an Oceanus would make more sense, or better yet a Seiko Astron/Citizen Atessa.
