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.

  Is this a 'hack' ?

  Put the arbor in the barrel in the correct direction and look at the hook of the arbor. It will show You the direction of the spring.

  I do believe in one of the manuals I saw for the 2892 DD module, you could unscrew it from the 2892, and submerge the whole thing in your cleaning machine as a single unit. I havent tried that yet, but when I was having issues with my Omega 1140, I got lucky and found a brand new one in Poland, and ordered that. So, if someone needs parts from an 1140 Omega/2892, I have the chronograph module in my parts bin, although its disassembled.

  They showed up! It's a perfect fit. Can't wait to populate it and try it out.

  Lubed up, back together (minus the one screw), and I'd say not a bad result! Going to give it a day or two to run in while I clean up the case and regulate it again, but off to a good start.

  So it runs and keeps good time even with that train wheel. You are lucky I would point out to the owner about the wheel, just in case at some point they take it to a different clock maker.
