Most quartz watch testers have this function. It creates a spinning magnetic field that drives the watch mechanism at speed. This can be enough to break loose old crusty oil or slight corrosion and get the watch running. It's a bit quick and dirty as watch repairs go but can be very effective especially if the watch has been sitting unused. Neil Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, I haven't. I am just starting now with this hobby and not even know where to start, but can you give me a few words about how to go about it? I was trying to search it and can't find anything about it. Thank you.

Quartz movements can and certainly should be serviced just like mechanical ones. But we're usually talking about quartz movements that were made to be serviceable (so not the cheap chinese plastic ones...). I would say that this one can be serviceable and you could certainly give it a try. I find them a lot more simple than most mechanicals. Only wish they were larger in size as it's a fiddly job. This type of movement could also require short circuiting it to start.

And don't forget the millionaire sponsor will need to chip in for the anti-virus for the ramsomware ....

Ok. Any millionaire members here care to sponsor this?? [emoji3] @JDM and I'm not talking about Lira!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
