anemeth 0 Posted February 27, 2016 I have the rep for more than a half year, it worked very nicely. A week ago sudenly stopped. When I looked it I realized that one of the screw got loose and wedged between the watch body and one of the gear, see photo below: You can see it from the back, the screw is around the one hour position, the screw hole is around the two hour position: My question is the back of this watch is a screwed type, is it?

_DC_ 218 Posted February 27, 2016 Yeah the back screws off, easy peasy!! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JSJ 0 Posted February 27, 2016 Be aware that there may also be a movement retention tab, like a D-shaped washer, floating about too. Take off the back and shake the watch back-down over a tray. Have a good root around inside after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frankt8242 1 Posted February 27, 2016 You're certainly fortunate to have found this place... Since we are indeed the "loose screw" capitol of the horological world here..!! Welcome to our flock..!!! :giggle: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anemeth 0 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Thanks! I unscrewed the back and put the screw back. I tightened the other 3 around the periphery of the watch, two were OK, the 3rd one had almost half a turn to be tightened. I have not found the retention tab. I put everything back and it is working. I cannot see anything loose in it. I have not found the other "loose screw" yet, maybe it lost with my marbels...
