I recieved a Kenneth Cole "reaction" that needs to have the 11 hour marker set in place. When I open the case up the face seems to be held in place, sitting on a ridge inside. Do Kenneth Cole watches need to have the crystal removed to do this fix?

Hi Lukey84, some KC watches have a back held by screws and the case and wristband are removed together (they are like one piece). The movement should come out with dial and everything. Check the case for screws or clips to hold the dial in place....

      Mechatronics Engineering v Mechanical Engineering

      @HectorLooimakes an excellent point, the degree should be brilliant and more than useful but if it's not recognised, then the job options are limited.  You need to find out how many companies are willing to accept Mechrotronics.

      Hi other than testing the coil without the proper tools it will be difficult.  If you +an rig up an external supply and attach it to the cut block you may be able to pick up the pulses on the chip if not on the coil. i have attached the parts sheet for the watch 9362 which gives you the part number of the cut board assembly, whether this part is still available or not , who knows.

      Hi and welcome. First of all, check the power reserve. If the watch is runing, this means the spring is attached to the barrel arbor. If there is no end of winding, this probably means that the spring is not attached to the barreland it's outer end is slipping. In such case, the watch will run, but the power reserve will be small - about several hours

      Hi welcome to the forum. One can only reiterate the diagnosis already made by clockboy mainspring problem. But before tearing it to pieces take a little time to read the attached file to acquaint yourself with all the various parts. TZIllustratedGlossary.pdf

      B-Dip residue?

      By Geotex · Posted

      We think about these preps as "one-dips" partly because they are terrific solvents but also because the parts they are used on are often cleaner in general than many other parts. But old oils petrify, and even something like B-Dip can't clean up over-soiled parts without some extra effort, as mentioned above. There is an intermediate step during cleaning where the solvent can partially dissolve tarry residues so they have a more liquid varnish-like consistency, and that could well be what you are seeing on the coils after two washes. I wouldn't worry that your B-Dip was contaminated before you used it on this hairspring, but it I wouldn't re-use that aliquot AFTER this cleaning!
