Timex indiglo

[Macgman2000]

Hello all,

A friend's father in law passed a few days ago. His daughter would like to get his watch working again. The back cover is missing. I have no clue what it is or what diameter cover I need to close it back up. These are the pictures she sent me. I will have the watch tomorrow possibly, but I doubt I will get any more info that what is the pic. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Best Regards,

Nick

Hi   Probably best bet is a donor watch from Ebay as getting a replacement from a material house will be a bit slim.

I may have one.  When you get it measure the size and I'll look.

looks like your standard timex m905 movement with no spacer ring, if that's the case then you're probably looking at ballpark 35.3mm case like you'll see on the smaller easy readers. Around here they are pretty common in thrift shops (and in ebay lots), not as popular as the 38mm/40mm timexes which do get picked up.

Rear snap caseback 33.2mm OD (outer flange), 31.7mm OD of the inner ring, at least on the one I have here. Movement also easily swappable from donor if that one doesn't work, 35mm-40mm (and up?) no date and date analog timexes use the m905.

I found one.  DM me your address and I'll send it to you.

Hi sorry for the late reply. I found one, the case was not in great condition but the movement, dial and back where clean. I moved over the movement and got it working. Thanks all for the suggestions.
