Seiko 2k03 Movement compatibality

[way2wyrd]

I have a 1987 Mickey 2K03 5009 watch that seems as if the movement is dead.  Im not a quartz guy so was wanting to swap the old movement with a new one.  Unfortunately they are out of production and i cant find one on Casker , esslinger etc

What movement would be compatible with it?

 

Thanks,

Jeff

As far as I'm aware there's no direct replacement for the 2K03 due to the position of the sub seconds hands.

Have you got any test equipment, even an analogue meter, to see if there's any life in it?

Edit

Just had another look through my notes and the V803 is an equivalent but also as rare as hens teeth.

I have test equipment for pinball machines. so have a meter etc and probably can test.  looks like ill have to dive in

Is it an Analogue or Digital Meter?

[way2wyrd]

I have both but prefer the digi.  I asume i need to test the coil for ohms  somehow or if theres any voltage running thru

Well I sorted it.  I have a crown and new stem on order as the old crown is missing.  The old stem is still in the case and movement. I thought maybe the stem wasn't pushed in and was in setting mode.

Pushed the stem in and Mickey is off and running.

Glad to see it's working.

Have you gone for the 40MX or 6M40 crown?

6M40 off the bay and a new stem from esslinger

Just realised that it's the same stem as the V803 too.
