I live somewhere on the eastern seaboard. I am an artist, I love watches, dogs and pie. I mainly work with photographs and photoshop. I like genuine and replica watches. I'm learning to take them apart, and eventually put them back together. I now own 16 of various colors and calibers. I recently got a a replica Rolex and low and behold it stopped working!? I look forward to taking it apart. I'm following a watch repair course by Mark Lovick and hope to learn enough to put back together whatever I take apart.

Evening, Adam here, Ex British Army, currently working as an Network Analyst. Naturally I'm here I'm here to ask a question! After scouring the Web for an answer, I'm lost. Recently I have become obsessed with purchasing old manual wind Timex from ebay, never more than £10-15, in an attempt to get them working. This is my first time looking at a M22 and can't figure out how to remove the stem, and struggling to find solid documentation. Hopefully this is a simple task which someone can help? Thanks.

Hey guys! Great information here. Teaching myself some basic watch maintenance. Really just starting out. Bought this with a view to "learn by doing". It wasn't winding when I started. Had an amazing time taking it apart and examining the parts. The hairspring seemed bent so I had a go at shaping it and damaged it even worse. The study came off and was lost, then part of the spring knotted ... Argh. I'm murdering this watch I know! I'm having a really tough time finding a compatible replacement. The parts chart says that the balance is "different from basic calibre 100" and to "refer to catalogue GF 239". I can't find any document by that name. If I could get some help it would be appreciated!
