This is a first. it's the first quartz watch I've been unable to safely change cells on, yep it has 2 of them and I can't release either. 

It's an edifice that my google-fu has been unable to locate a guide,  video or otherwise , to  suggest ways to attack it. 

Does anyone know the trick for this model? 

It looks like this when dressed. Picture of Edifice

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can render.

You are supposed to peel off the white pads and then you can see the metal clips that are over the batteries. One end will unclip and you can pull the battery out. Make note of which way they came out because I have seen those with one up and one down. Then stick the white pads back on.

mm,  those things are seriously  stuck on,  but ty will go for sufficient force to move tm,  I thought I was going to pull up the bars when I was giving them an experimental pull.

      A lathe with indexing that won't break the bank?

      Hah! Well, California will have to do. Lived in TX for a brief period back in the early 70s, though, so maybe that counts. 🙂 Funny you should mention making vacuum tubes- I've actually tinkered with that! It's REALLY tough to do, and I've never made one more complicated than a simple diode that barely worked, but I have played around at it. But there's just no infrastructure for vacuum tube fabrication. I can get a lathe and learn how to use it to make complex parts, and while it might take a while to learn- and money to get the equipment, of course- it is possible to do more or less "off the shelf". But vacuum tubes, not so much. There are a few folks out there doing some crazy cool work with bespoke tubes, but they have setups that are far beyond what I can manage in my environment and it's mostly stuff they built by hand. I also have been playing with making piezoelectric Rochelle Salt crystals to replace ancient vacuum tube turntable needles- nobody's made those commercially for probably 60 years. I'm a sucker for learning how to do weird things no one does any more so I can make things no one uses work again. (I think this is drifting off the topic of lathes, lol).

      You shoulda been born in Texas. Tough to make a vacuum tube though. You can substitute with a MOSFET eq ckt I guess. I was playing around making a pinion the other day. More to it than meets the eye.

      Replacing crystal, do I need a bezel tool?

      By zx6rfool · Posted

      Well, turns out it was a fake bezel! The crystal is domed mineral glass and I was able to find a cheap replacement that should be here in two days.  I used my crappy little press to pop out the cracked crystal, Ill give the case a good cleaning in the meantime and do a once over on the movement.
