Ronda 715 repair

[Lucan]

Hi

I have a Victorinox Inox with (I believe) a Ronda 715 movement. I suspect I have damaged the coil when replacing the battery, I'm going the try and check with a multimeter. Can anyone advise the contact points. I have found the correct resistance, but strongly suspect mine will be infinity due to my hamfistedness. It's how we learn...

So assuming I need to replace the coil, the cheapest way seems to be buying a whole new movement from Cousins. Is it then easiest to replace the whole movement, or take the coil off the new movement and just replace that? I don't currently have hand removers so am suspecting the latter.

Thanks

Normally with a quartz movement like this you would just replace the whole thing.  But if you want to just change the coil you can do that. I'm attaching the technical  information.

OK thanks. Having thought about it, perhaps there is a good chance of me damaging the replacement coil by trying to move that across, so replacing the whole movement is best.

Any recommendations on hand remover tool? I wouldn't imagine I'd use them a lot, so don't want to break the bank, but could afford better ones if necessary.
