Hello all,  I have two Timex electronic watches with the same problem.  Movements are ticking away but the hands on the dial are not moving.  To be fair, the second hand pulsates on one watch without advancing.  I have added some photos below.  Please let me know if you can help me get these watches moving again!  Thank you,  Martin

Part 200/3 is probably broken. So drive to hands is lost.

Or drive train is stuck and the impulse from the battery keeps the balance swinging.

A good spray of some sort of contact cleaner can sometimes gets these movements going again.

      Favre-Lueba vintage rectangluar case/crystal

      By MikeEll · Posted

      Hi all, I have a lovely Favre-Lueba dress watch from late 70s/early 80s in a stainless steel case.  Its an unusual curved rectangular case and crystal.  I'm wondering if there's any possibility I might be able to buy/find a replacement crystal for this watch.  The base of the crystal is also curved to match the case, rather than flat.  I'm looking at the Cousins website page here https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/rectsq-rounded-corners-one-side-curved-bezel-sternkreuz-rzr but not sure if I'm looking for the correct type.  In my case its a rectanglular crystal with rounded corners, and both the upper and lower surfaces of the crystal are curved. Many thanks

      Getting more interesting this post, innit? Mikeplilk, Waggy. Impressed with your efforts. Makes mine look amateurish. Hey, that's what I am. Still, I have good results with the 'frog'. Apprentice test piece. Paper is from https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/234602659940?var=534248554534   I am aware that the more I delve into the DIY, the more I am gaining understanding of watchmaking. Well, a little each time. Ross

      What are these Seitz B-Jewels?

      By VWatchie · Posted

      I bought this box of jewels a few years ago and noticed that the glass containers are divided into two sections. In the first section, the containers have a label with red text colour and always start with the letter B. In the second section, the text on the label is black and lacks the letter B. There seem to be roughly the same number of containers in both sections, and each section has the same sizes of jewels. The only difference is that the jewels in the B section with red text have a slightly rounded, convex underside. My question is what are these rounded jewels for and if I can use them instead of the jewels with a flat bottom if a certain size is missing?
