Hi Everyone!

I am new in watchrepair, from Austria. Right now I am trying to buy a defect watch to play around and to learn how to work with that. I also was concerned about radioactivity of some old watches (perhaps even too much), so now searching for a old watch from 70-80s to play around! ?

Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum.

What part are you from? Austria my favourite country. I have spent lots of time in the Salzkammergut at St Wolfgang and also in the Austrian state of Tyrol. I hope to return when this horrid covid 19 goes away.

Welcome!

I bought my first “good” watch in Salzburg! A Tag Heuer 2000 quartz chronograph. I still have it (and a bunch of spares) but I haven’t got it running yet, as I’m not qualified. It’s a Depraz module on top of a tractor. Since I have two, I should just man up and tear the thing down...

Its right in the middle of this picture amongst a bunch of other old watches.

      Blew it with a coil

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      Yep, i pulled that up as well when i was looking,  there is definitely parts out there if you are prepared to go out and find them.  I watched that video years ago, I'm not so sure about probing the coil like that. If you are going to touch the coil use the side of the probe or at least shape a nice round end to it.

      Is this a 'hack' ?

      By watchweasol · Posted

      Hi. In the picture not only does it depict that the wheel is bent but also the plate or is that due to th angle of the picture.  Already received very good advise so I will butt out.
