Gucci 9300 Chrono Instruction Manual

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for any instructions for this watch to reset everything after a battery change.

It's some complex series of presses on the 3 pushers and 1 crown but I can't remember the sequence and I've lost the instruction sheet that I had.

Any help would be appreciated  :geek:

Thanks guys.

Yeah it doesn't seem to work using those instructions.

The movement is Swiss with 1 battery for the time and another battery for the Chrono functions.

I found a picture of the movement here: http://www.watchrepairtalk.com/topic/1112-gucci-9300/

I seem to recall having to press 2 buttons simulateously while the crown is out but I can't recall exactly.

I even sent an email to Ronda in Switzerland but got a fairly unhelpful reply..   but at least they did reply:

 

According your description we don’t have/had such movement in our sales program. But we know, that some of our clients added RONDA watches on their modules, which they have assembled to entire watches.

So in this case we know only the functions concerning the time indication. Please contact the watch brand (Gucci) for further instructions.

Unfortunately not.

The watch has 3 pushers and 1 crown and as near as I can tell, the crown only has 2 positions.

It has been many years since I had a battery in this watch but I seem to recall needing to press some obscure combination of the pushers after changing the battery.

Welcome to the forum Watchmad. I suspect this may have a Seiko 7a28 movement in it, so try setting it using these instructions.

George.

I did spot this (incorrect) post of yours earlier and I had to chuckle to myself. :biggrin:

It's an easy mistake to make with these 7Axx clones, of which the Gucci quartz chono's are just one. There are other bone fide brands of 7A28, the most obvious being Yema, which use a (re-branded) Shimauchi Ltd V905 movement. The easy way to tell a 7Axx clone from the 'real deal' (without sight of the movement) is to check the increments on the LH minute counting sub-dial. Usually they'll go up to 60, whereas a pukka 7Axx only counts to 30 minutes. Plus they're usually 'Swiss Made'. <_<

    • So leave off the seconds. Stand the movement on its edge, its the dial edge that rests on the pad ( either rubber or cork , something that wont slip ). Use a finger of your left hand to hold the movement upright,  right hand presses the release and flicks out the stem. I do it this way so i can see what I'm under a microscope. But you could hold the movement between two fingers of your left hand, its the right that has to manipulate the stem out by pushing the release and flicking out the stem with  right ring finger nail. Sounds more complicated than it actually is. I guess you could fix a push pin to something solid, then all you need to do is push the release against the pin, leaving your right hand completely free to pull the stem out.
    • Try putting everything back together and closing the back cover. I think one of the two springs has to contact the metal casing to ground the casing. So when you press the button, it will touch the contact on circuit board and close the circuit.
    • Yes, the seconds hand is the longest and goes almost to the edge of the dial. I can’t quite picture it how you do it on the rubber pad
    • A don't think so it leaked or damaged it because the watch itself works it just the buttons ain't working not connecting with the circuit board have taken more pictures of where the buttons makes contact with the circuit board.
    • I think what peter means oh is once he has fitted the hands and  checked for  alignment if them and that they dont foul, how does he then hold the movement to remove the stem in order to case up. The dial cannot be laid on a cushion or in a movement holder as the hands will get damaged. This can be quite tricky for a beginner, what i do is  to stand the movement on edge on a rubber pad so it doesn't slip. Hold the top edge with one finger then my dominant hand uses 3 fingers to press the stem release and flick out the stem. See below peter, leave off the second hand as this is the longest and gets caught the most, then fit it once the stem is out. Alternatively place the movement in one of the cup style holders, i imagine this is what they are designed for. They only touch the very edge of the dial.
