I cannot believe how easy it was, but moreover, I was amazed that, for the first time in my life, I was able to crack a watch case open and SOLVE a problem, rather than CAUSE a problem!!!
looks like a nice watch,what kind is it?maybe you got your second calling there Twall,watch repairman.I collect watches to some extant,I inhearted my dad's Accutron which is one of the world's first elec. wristwatch,but I perfer the old windups and automatics...russ
Is that a standard wind up movement with digital display ?
Looks like it is built like a tank !
Outstanding - Glad you didn't mess it up this time
and can feel better about it ! :thumbsup:
Twall, congrats on your handyman skills, I have taken my Blackberry apart a few times to replace certain parts but would never tackle something like your project.
wierd because that's what these two chronographs are,Stauer.Both the same timepiece,both 31jewels and both with the same problem.When in the chrono mode the 60 sec. hand won't advance the minute hand.The watch's themself are beautiful watches and they keep good time but if the stopwatch part don't work I got no use for them,they go in the box and are put away.When I was a junior in high school back in 65 I ran crosscountry and track so I saved my summer caddy money and bought me a really nice windup Tissot chronograph,cost me $100.00.That watch lasted me my high school career,I don't know how many parachute jumps in the Army but didn't make it through Vietnam,it got shot off my hand in a firefight one night and I never saw it again...russ
