There were several electric watches before timex. that would make restoration easier and safer.
How can we share information? I really would like some tips/tricks/gadgets etc. I've perused several threads here from like minded individuals who, like me, love these humble little pieces that lack all pretense yet "do their duty" faithfully. They look like they'd work but I doubt they would with modern batteries.
#Timex m cell watch battery replacement how to
It would be fun to get a bag of watches working again.Īnyone know how to service the Timex Electric the analog mechanical watch coupled to a solenoid (or something like it) which was used to provide a push to the balance to provide timing and energy. Seems to keep good time in spite of my faux pas (paws!). Put the balance back in (and made a bit of a mess of it) and it works. Polished the case, buffed the crystal, did a partial disassembly of the movement, popped the whole thing into the cleaner. Recently spent a pleasant half-day working on an old 50-60's era men's mechanical. Even my paws seem sufficient to revive some of them. I've had a few flops but I'm surprised as how robust they are. As everyone knows they are still in production and the new Timex watches are all quartz. I've recently encountered the world of Timex watches.
