Hello, sorry for the poor image quality but I can not do better .. I found this afternoon this watch in a flea market. It was given to me and changing the battery, I see that it works very well. As the photo shows, it is quartz with a black dial but also analogue-digital-alarm-chronograph and the movement has only this: VA41A And it is a PHASAR. So my question is: what is the model really and who manufactures this brand and what is the composition of the case because I can not find anything except on Ebay that does not have my model .. Thanks In advance .  :)

The movement maker seems to be a Morioka Tokei (maybe a seiko of some sort...) 

example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Morioka-cal-VA41A-N-O-S-dual-time-watch-movement-/361892654803

You're right frenchie iforgot to mention it ' Morioka Tokei ' ..Thank you for the link . Could you date it ? because there's no date on it ..

No, I can't date it... but if I were to take a guess I'd say late 80s, early 90s... maybe?

This movement is also made under the Hattori, Pulsar and Shiojiri names (search for hattori VA41)

example here: http://www.startimesupply.com/product/VA41.html

It takes a 396 battery and can be substituted with a v041 movement, by the same makers.

      What is this tool !

      By mikepilk · Posted

      I was pleased to pick up a selection of some tools on ebay (v cheap 🤣), and they've just arrived,  I've been looking for a crystal press for a while, and this one is ideal But in the selection is this thing - what is it for?  (it's about 3" long) Something to do with stem tubes?

      You'll have to strip it back anyway.

      Epilame / Fixodrop

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      I think I've heard that more than from just Alex. That doesn't make it right though, but I'm convinced i saw some literature diagram explaining why to do that. There must be good info here in the archives, I'll have to have a dig around.

      That will mean dismantling the gear train, which with 5 pivots to align was a pain. Probably going to have to though. I'm convinced it's something to do with the great wheel.

      Epilame / Fixodrop

      By VWatchie · Posted

      As far as I know, the only time an epilame treatment has potential drawbacks is when something is rubbing on the treated part w/o lubrication in between creating abrasive dust. That is, I don't believe in the method of "running the watch to make a groove through it first in the pallet stones where the lubrication is then placed". So, I think the rule would be; do not epilame treat parts where rubbing is going on without lubrication. Other than that I don't think we have anything to worry about. That said, I'm not an expert, and I'm always happy to learn more. Has any other repairer than Alex suggested or explained the "making-a-groove" method? My impression is that it's just something he constructed in his mind. I have not perceived it as a generally practiced method. Again, I could be wrong!
