Lorus Quartz Movement Help


Recommended Posts

my neighbor asked me if i could put a new battery in her lorus nurses fob watch , but unfortunately it still doesn't go with the new battery fitted.

I had a look on Cousins just to see how much a new movement would be but got a bit bogged down by the amount available and ligne size and all that.

As i say its a lorus fob the writing on the movement says Japan and the numbers are PH3N P021J any help as to how to find the replacement most appreciated as my search on Cousins drew a blank 

thanks Andy

From Esslinger:

 

Outside Diameter: 6 3/4 x 8 Ligne or 15.3 x 17.8 mm
• Movement 3.15 mm thick
• The height from the bottom of the watch movement to the top of the sweep second pinion is 4.80 mm
• 3 Hands
• Requires watch cell 377
• Requires watch hands: hour 1.20, minute .70, and sweep second .17 mm
• Has NO jewels
• Stem: 354222, Tap 10
• Overall height from the bottom of the movement to the top of the sweep second pinion is 4.82 mm
• Includes watch stem and temporary plastic watch crown
• Hattori Japan quartz movement
• Japanese assembled

 

US$4.95 and the stem and battery are included!

 

They list 3 versions: PC21, PC21HCP, and PC21XHCP. The difference is the overall height...so make sure you get the correct one. Corresponding prices increase by one dollar.

The manufacturer lists four versions: PC21AE, PC21AF, PC21J & PC21S

 

The difference is in the height of the sweep second pinion. Except for J & S, which are the same height. I think the difference between J & S is that J has a longer battery life. (3 years vs 2 years.)

    • More photos of watch for reference. 
    • 1) flat jewel for wheels: picture shows a jewel with oil sink. Straight hole. Not hole 8 or 9. 2) balance jewel, olive hole: picture shows a domed jewel without oil sink. B + sizes. 3) flat jewel, olive hole: hole size 8 or 9 only. Frank
    • Hey folks, first time poster here. Starting into watch repair and swapping out a movement with another and have a donor watch. I incorrectly yanked a stem out that I assumed was a split stem but I think the case back just is hard to get off. By doing this, I can put the stem back in but it fairly easily pulls out now so I think I broke something. Not a huge deal as this was the donor but I’m hoping to get confirmation that I toasted a particular piece.  I know movements generally have a screw or push release for the stem if not a split stem so I think I just made a rookie whoopsy. The case back doesn’t have a groove for a knife nor is a screw down which is what led me to the split stem assumption… I may just need a razor blade to create a gap in the case back to get a knife underneath. On the donor I could certainly push the watch back out of the case, just don’t want to make the same mistake on the watch I’m rehabbing. is anyone familiar with this movement or can definitively tell if I broke the donor piece that holds in the stem? Not a huge deal since it’s a harvester movement for me. thanks all, looking forward to learning a lot!
    • That’s a fair point and is what’s stopped me from making a more concerted effort to open it. Since it’s got an SW200 in it, I was thinking of getting an Invicta diver with the same movement for $200 or so and messing with that first.   I was thinking that the SW200 fine regulation screw would be easy to turn to slow the watch down a bit, but maybe it’s easy to break the movement even doing something simple like that.
    • See, making new staff takes me 30 minutes and I often say that pocket watch with broken balance staff and no other problems is actially watch without problems. So fixing ypu watch is a piece of cake. Just lathe is needed and skills for working on it
