I have a Watch that has a Day/Date on the dial, when I pull the crown out to adjust the day/date only the day changes, the date will not change at all.  So when the watch runs the day and Date do not change, can you point me in the right direction to solve this problem?

 

The only things I have done with watches is to change battries, and replace the workings and Crystals/Glass and repair straps, so be gental with me, thanks in advance.

Hi David,

 

What watch is it? If it was a Seiko (or Seiko movement) I would point at the plastic gear that is in charge of changing the day. Those can be damaged when they get stuck. Other movements may have other issues depending on how the day/date complication works...

      Favre-Lueba vintage rectangluar case/crystal

      By MikeEll · Posted

      Hi all, I have a lovely Favre-Lueba dress watch from late 70s/early 80s in a stainless steel case.  Its an unusual curved rectangular case and crystal.  I'm wondering if there's any possibility I might be able to buy/find a replacement crystal for this watch.  The base of the crystal is also curved to match the case, rather than flat.  I'm looking at the Cousins website page here https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/rectsq-rounded-corners-one-side-curved-bezel-sternkreuz-rzr but not sure if I'm looking for the correct type.  In my case its a rectanglular crystal with rounded corners, and both the upper and lower surfaces of the crystal are curved. Many thanks

      Getting more interesting this post, innit? Mikeplilk, Waggy. Impressed with your efforts. Makes mine look amateurish. Hey, that's what I am. Still, I have good results with the 'frog'. Apprentice test piece. Paper is from https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/234602659940?var=534248554534   I am aware that the more I delve into the DIY, the more I am gaining understanding of watchmaking. Well, a little each time. Ross

      What are these Seitz B-Jewels?

      By VWatchie · Posted

      I bought this box of jewels a few years ago and noticed that the glass containers are divided into two sections. In the first section, the containers have a label with red text colour and always start with the letter B. In the second section, the text on the label is black and lacks the letter B. There seem to be roughly the same number of containers in both sections, and each section has the same sizes of jewels. The only difference is that the jewels in the B section with red text have a slightly rounded, convex underside. My question is what are these rounded jewels for and if I can use them instead of the jewels with a flat bottom if a certain size is missing?
