You are an absolute legend. I'm so happy, my dad gave me his watch but it stopped working so it was sitting on my shelf for years, but your video brought it back to life. Thank you so much 🙏
Fantastic SAM! I am happy you get to enjoy it again!
Yeah actually the same happened to me except my uncle gave the seiko to me
My daily SKX 007 has been down for 7 years, even bought a second one right before they blew up in price but will only wear casually. Now because of your video "It's ALIVE, it's ALIVE" Thank you so much for bringing him back...
Thanks for sharing! It seems i helped a few people.
Just fixed my Seiko that hasn't worked for over 25 years thanks to you. I come across it when i was clearing out a closet, I'd put it in there when it stopped around 1993. It was a gift from my first wife. Thanks again 😊
Great to hear! I want to see a photo of it on Instagram now. That is too cool.
@@AM2PMReviews I'm not sure how to put it on Instagram
Wow 25 years? Geez!
Had a snk809 sitting in a box for a year because of this. Came across your video and fixed it in 3 min. Thanks!
Trevor Hirst no problem!!!!
Trevor did you need the kit?
I also have the snk809 that I fell in love with after I changed the strap, and now it just continues to stop :( very sad day for me.
Clint Eastwood get a cheap caseback opener and then a small jewellers screwdriver
@@trevorhirst5096 think I ought to? Ok. Wish me luck
I kept buying new ones, got three or four seiko diver watches. I’m a plumber, gotta have water tight watch. I just fixed mine and now I’m happy. Thank you sir.
your welcome Paul! I am glad it worked!
Thank you so much. I just repaired my fathers old watch from 1973. He is gonna be so Happy.
YES! Same issue?
My Seiko 5 snk809 had that exact same problem with the rotor noise on the back and just tightening the screw brought it back to life. A lot of time and money saved. Can't thank you enough.
Yes I am happy to help. I can't believe I was ripped off.
Just saved me a whole lot of time and money with this video. Thank you so much!!
Yeah man! I am glad to help.
So glad I found this video. I've had an orange Seiko diver's watch that I really liked but it developed the same problem -- intermittent stopping. I'd put it on the night stand and it would have stopped cold, randomly. Tried your technique and gave it a tiny drop of watch oil, and now it works great! Thanks so much for posting this vid, one of my favorite watches is back on my wrist.
Glad I could help Kthoennes!
why say seiko shake when you could call it a sheiko
that is a good name for it! Thank you for watching
Word
Because it takes more energy to pronounce with that extra letter.
@@raulfernandez9111okay Kevin
Witty
Thanks for this video. My Seiko Automatic stopped at 4am 2 days ago after 7-8 years of working fine. Your tip was spot on and I’m good to go again.
Glad it helped. i am shocked how many people have the same issue. i know nothing about watches but this still works.
Wow saved me some money. Mine has been setting since 1983. Rotor was loose.
So glad to help Steve!
Yeeeessss!! My whatch works after two years. Thanks dude!!!
Glad I could help!
I love the honesty - if it looks wrong, it's because it probably is... Props bud. Research, then get some hands-on experience. It's how getting good starts.
yep just practicing and if you mess up...just get a new movement for like 50 and try again.
Just tried this with one of my Seiko 5s that hasn't worked for a few years, bingo, its working, great, video, very pleased 😁👍
NO WAY! I think it has helped a lot of people and I didn't know it was that big of an issue. Maybe i should use a tiny bit of lock tite on the screw so it doesn't come out again.
Thank you so much!! I dropped my watch on the floor yesterday and had this exact problem. Thought I was gonna have to buy a new one until I saw this video. Fixed it and its as good as new
Might need adjustment after a drop. Drops can knock the watch out of adjustment causing it to run fast or slow and mess up beat error
good tip
yeah it seems that it can happen over time or with impacts.
I had this issue. Tightening the screw didnt help but a little light oil on the counterweight bearing really helped.
oh great tip David.
I had the same problem. It would run for a couple of minutes and stop! So I’m going to try your fix! Fingers crossed!!
let me know if it works!
Stone me, this sorted my Seiko 5 in a trice! Opened the case with cushioned pliars as well. Diolch yn fawr!
awesome!
You probably did fix your winding problem, however if it were some other problem causing the watch to stop, you would have to wait a while for the second hand to hang up. So rotor hang up or second hand hang up? You probably got it but you will have to wait until that wind goes down before knowing for sure. Nice little video by the way.
Yeah thank you Teddy. I know nothing about fixing watches but I just noticed this sound and the rotor was rubbing so i decided to tighten it down and it works to this day. Go figure!
Great video! I have the same watch but with a stainless band. I held tension on the band so it wouldn't rattle and shook it and it made the same back scratching sound your's did. I might have to order this kit. It'll make my wife happy...I told her "I can throw the Seiko out and go get a Breitling!" $16 kit is a bit cheaper :)
Thanks for watching Jim. Yes this still worked for me years later. Its not perfect but it does the job. I think most people will be surprised how simple this issue is.
@@AM2PMReviews An Update: I went to my local Seiko dealer (even though I didn't buy the watch from him....but he's a good jeweler and I've bought a bunch of Pandora stuff from him for my wife and daughter....) and told him what I suspected. He said it was either that or one other issue. Took it back into his office. It wasn't ten minutes later he came back out. Said the screw had backed out completely and the pendulum thing was just laying in there loose. He put it back together, and it seems perfectly fine. He said try it for a few days and that it's probably fixed. If not, we'll have to send it out. It could use regulating....it loses a minute or two per week. But he cannot do that. But anyway, I had the same problem you did here. Oh, and he didn't charge me a dime. Otherwise I'd be buying the $17 kit. Thanks again for a very informative video :)
Thank you, I also succeeded with my Seiko!
I am so happy to help Galin! Sub to support us!
I dropped my Seiko about 3 yrs ago. Thought it was toast.
Took the back cover off recently, saw the rotor was loose.
I took the rotor off to see if there was any damage underneath. It looked fine.
I googled a little bit.
I came across this vid and sure enough this worked.
My work watch is back in action. Thanks
NO WAY! I am so happy it worked for you. share the video if it helped you.
GOOD, BUT YOU HAD LUCKY EVEN QUARTZ WATCHES DONT LIKE TO FALL DOWN ON THE FLOOR.
Thanks man, this helped me fix my watch! This video was the most concise I've seen on the topic.
Glad to hear it! I know it is a simple fix but it seems to help people.
Almost bought a new watch! Thank you so much for making this video!
Hope you enjoy it!
Awesome, I just did this and the watch has run longer since then than it has in a couple years, thanks!
Great to hear!
Thaaaaaaaanks alot sir !!!
I just bought a 2016 skx007 pepsi mod and it was "blingy clanky" when i was shaking her... Saw your vid and decided to have a look inside.
Turns out my balance was so loose it was about to fall off ! scewed it back up and no more "clinky banky" when i shake her 😊
YES! I am so happy to help.
Good tip for people who don't know about the Seiko winding weight coming loose but you do need to tighten the weight much more than you have just shown.To do this job properly you will need a screw driver with wider blade to fit the slot properly.
oh yeah i tightened it good! no issues still.
@@AM2PMReviews That's good.
Thanks
Thanks for posting this...it saved me time and money. I had identical problem with my Presage (loose rotor screw) and this fixed it.
no way! thank you for watching man.
This was exactly what was wrong with my watch, right downtown the marks on the inside of the case. I watched your video yesterday ordered kit and opened it up tonight to fix.
no way! I hope this helps a ton. I didn't know so many people have this issue.
Thank you! I bought a second hand seiko 5 a week ago and had this problem.
I can't believe how many people have this issue. thanks for watching.
Thanks for this video, I now have 99 problems but a broken Seiko 5 ain't one.
Thanks Joe! Share this if it really helped you. I appreciate the feedback.
Good job man! I Don't think that some pro watch repair are better than that, I been thru some with shitty jobs sometimes
yes for my first time, it turned out great! people will judge me for it, but as long as it work and I like it, who cares.
I need to get mine done too, my skx been rattling too, plus chapter dial kept on rotates :-(
I got the same kit yesterday, had the same problem, it would keep stopping all the time, 24 hours have passed, tightened the screw, still going, thanks for the video
OH Snap! I am so happy it is working for you. I also tell people that if they have issues it is cheaper to just put a new movement in the watch than it is to service it.
Nice watch, it needs a service or replacement movement look into the NH36 upgrade. Its worth the hassel!
The First Watch yes great idea. I would just swap out the whole movement
@@AM2PMReviews why? a Good service would be better, but probably the swap woul be cheaper.
Just used this to fix a Seiko 5 thanks for the video
Glad it helped
This is great that you took the time to present this, but the second hand was working before you dismantled the watch. See 00:32.
It only worked at times. The rotor was not able to charge the main spring well since it was rubbing on the case back.
I have the same watch and the problem I m facing is the same as yours. Maybe I can bring my legendary watch back to life.
yeah mine seems to be ticking away now.
i just subscribed after i fixed my 2003 007, thank you!!!
THANK YOU TANGO! I am so happy it worked. we just got 9k subs.
James Patton congratulations Bro’!!!
Good vid, will try that on mine. Just bought it (second hand), but too nice to send back , so going to fix myself. A video on how to lubricate a watch would be good (if you haven't done this already)
how do you lubircate it?
Thanks so much for the great tip! I was ready to throw out my watch- fixed within 5 mins. Super happy!!
it WORKED! YESSS!
Thanks for this video, I almost brought it to a repair shop😂
Glad I could help. I paid like 100 bucks and I didn't want that to happen to anyone else. You can also just buy a whole new movement.
@@AM2PMReviews I'm going to try this on a Seiko that I dropped and a Russian Paratrooper (?) watch that I also dropped. Both are of really only sentimental value, but at my age, what isn't, LOL!?😅
I found my father's watch and it's Seiko as well. Since I got interested into watch recently and I wonder why it's no longer working and it looks beautiful as well. It's a Seiko 80031 ZI
I don't want to touch anything it just in case if I make it much worse
yes i dont know anything about watch making so i just knew to tighten the main screw and it worked.
i've got the same problem. It helps. Thanks
Good to hear
Hello,
Thank you so much for DIY instruction video for Seiko 5 Automatic watxh repair.
Plz provide a link for where do we but Watch Repair kit ?
Thank you .
Hi no problem. This helped me twice so it already paid for itself. It should be in the description for you.
will try this on my dads 7S26! i hope it will work
let me know.
Please! Don't leave us hanging, lol!
@@davewilson4929 I've tried it but didn't work for me, I think I'll let the pros handle this one =) 😅
@@AM2PMReviews I think my dad's watch need some serious cleaning too, tried it but didn't work for me
Thank you! Btw, how accurate is your Seiko? I have an old Seiko diver's watch from the 70's and my recollection is that it was accurate to about +/- 10 sec/day.
i am not sure I have not tested it's accuracy but I would say it is pretty similar to yours maybe 15 seconds... I need to probably dial it in with that little lever on the back. I have 7 watches so i rotate them anyways.
A chronometer (a mechanical watch sold for it's accuracy) is between +6 & -4 secs per day. A Seiko diver is not a chronometer so +/- 10 is acceptable. My own Orange Monster started out a5 +/- 10 sec per day and then, after about 15 years, it went to +/- 5 mins a day! Admittedly, the watch lived a tough life and I never took it in for servicing etc. I finally took it in when the watch stopped working (rotor screw) and the guy kindly adjusted the time keeping using a timegrapher. The accuracy changed to +/- 2 secs which was almost unbelievable. Sadly the watch has stopped again and now the watch shop is closed but, with this video, and an app for your phone (watch accuracy meter) I'm hoping I can get the same results at home. One thing that might of been missed off on the video was ensuring the gasket is clean and well sited. I also have an issue with misting on my watch so I'm thinking of placing it in a box for a week with one of those desiccant packets to remove any internal moisture - I don't know if this will work though.
Does your divers watch from the 70's still work & I bet it has a battery.
@@lpjbird No it stopped working. It was an automatic. I need to get it serviced or buy the tools to do it myself.
Thanks a lot for making this video, just brought a new seiko samurai and out of the box the seconds hand is skipping and stopping periodically... I'm really hoping this is the fix for my watch as I'd hate to go through the hassle of returning/exchanging it.
Update: Got home from work tried it out and it fixed my problem! of a stopping/stuttering second hand... scratched the caseback a bit using pilers to take the caseback off but im not to worried about that as its a part of the watch rarely ever seen im just glad that my new watch actually works and didnt have to be service out of the box or returned.
Thanks again for posting this vid, Its the only real solution to my problem I could find and would've never thought to do it myself had I not came acrosss your vid.
I am so glad to have helped you!
Great video, my SKX is acting up just like yours was. New sub here!
thank you SoCal for subbing! I will post more!
James Patton that would be awesome!
If i'm doing something wrong it's probably because it is wrong best line in the video ❤
LOL
Many, many thanks for your video. My SEIKO 5 watch has been 'sleeping' for decades, now its waking up nice and strong. 250624
Thanks for sharing! I had no idea it would help this many people.
Just ordered an se i faulty seiko 5 sport, with kind of this issue.. stopping after beeing put down, so gonna try this
did it work?
@@AM2PMReviews i will give feedback. It is in transit from a nother country. So might be a while. 😉
@@AM2PMReviewshi again. Didnt work ,so will try taking a closer look, or order a nh36a movement. ;)
Thank You, fixed my NH36 on my Deep Blue Pro Aqua!
I am so happy it worked for you Amado!
I got a deep blue pro diver.. and it acts the same way.. ran for 40 seconds and stopped . I will try this method and see how it goes. thanks for tips
I've bought many a non working Seiko auto off ebay cheap as not working due to loose rotor. The other is the hairspring coiling over itself.
oh yeah that is probably hard to fix. I would just drop a new movement in there since they seem to be cheap.
Thanks Sir.
I'll try to fix my pagani design that have same problem. It use NH35A movement with jam rotor
Great 👍
Thanks a bunch man. I was about to throw mine away until I watched this video 😀
Glad I could help
I have seiko monster with 4r36 movement. The rotor is mot moving freely like yours. I must sake it hard make it 360 spin. Whats wrong with that?
Btw its not make any scratch sound. And no any scratch mark on back case
I am not sure. I am not a watch repair guy i just happen to know this specific issue with my seikos. I would make sure it is able to move freely. It could be a lot of things.
The rotor issue isn't related to the second hand stopping except if the watch is fully and i mean fully unwound
YEAH mine was very dead. It wasn't winding much when I was wearing it.
@@AM2PMReviews NEED A SERVICE PROBABLY...
This is a false statement.
My Seiko Samurai had a stopping, jumping/stuttering second hand fresh out of the box whether I hand wound or wore it all day long the problem persisted ... did this rotor tightening trick and the movement is working immaculately now.
If your rotor is rubbing the case back then your watch isn't efficently powering itself. as soon as I removed the case back I could visibly seen the wear on the inside of the case back flipped the watch over without doing anything to the watch but removing the back and the seconds hand began to tick along flawlessly, gave the rotor a little tighten and all is well now.
@@TysonHook-22- lol I'm a watchmaker and no my statement is correct and the only way your problem can exist is if your watch is almost not wound and that would result in bad timekeeping and the watch constantly stopping
@@InkreptileWell I'm no watchmaker but I'm telling you from my own personal experience with my seiko just last week.
The seconds hand was jumping/ skipping 10-15secs at a time if not more and randomly stopping all the time so of course it wasnt keeping time properly nore was it winding up fully because of the rotor rubbing issue... all the issues were completely solved by tightening the rotor ever so slightly saving me the time/money of getting the watch serviced.
Since I did the rotor tightening last week, my watch is holding time +4-6 secs a day which isnt bad at all for a seiko. I'm saying all this so if someone else has the same issue as me... again, a jumping/skipping and stopping seconds hand they'll know this is a potential fix for it thats worth trying out. I seen this fix a stopping seconds hand with my own two eyes, so you can tell me whatever you want... its irrelevant to me, others reading this convo can make there own choices I'm just sharing my personal experience.
I have a Seiko 5 from early two thousands ( the one that has a clearcase back) and I am trying to open it and clean all myself. What kind of chemicals do you recommend to clean it and remove the rost?
i dont know. i just fixed this loose screw. i wish i knew more.
you know what my problem is? I got worn bearing so even tho the screw is tightened it still scratches the back case and thats not good... and thats just one problem i have with 20 yr old 7s26 seiko 5
Ante 20 years old holly crap just get another one bro it’s time for upgrade
I bought a seiko 5 snkl43k1 and I have this issue, since the watch has its 1yr warranty I will try to say to the mechanics this solution or maybe they know how to fix it. I am just curious so I surf the net and found out that I am not the only one who has this problem.
yeah i can't believe this is an issue for how good their watches are overall.
Hi, I recently bought a Seiko, 4R36, which when I try to wind it manually the crown keeps rotating even for 60-100 times but the mainspring doesn’t wound. I perceive that the crown should get tight when the mainspring is wound. The second hand doesn’t move. But when I shake the watch watch in a horizontal arc the watch starts working. Can you help me with this?
I am sorry i am not a watch maker or fixer. I just know some basics.
Do I need a special screwdriver to screw down that screw? Are other ways to screw it down?
I just used the tool kit in the description that has a flat head and it worked great!
Was the winding mechanism providing feedback when this was broken? My SKX013 isn't ticking or winding right now
oh i dont know it just seems it wasn't properly screwed on so it was rubbing the rotor.
I love Seiko. I own 3 models and theirs something about Seiko divers and the 5 line that is just so pleasing to look at and wear. Good quality movements for a fair price and they look great! My grail watch is a submariner. However the new luxury line Seiko’s “GRAND SEIKO” has just come out with a $4500 diver that rivals Rolex. It would be a tough decision if I had to pick
that is how i feel! I love the Submariners but that new grand seiko this year is so nice. I hope to afford it one day.
Stop bullshit
A sheiko is not a rolex.
Ordered a case opening tool from eBay, gonna try to fix my seiko monster that stopped ticking, so just a very small tighten yeh not much at all?
yeah just tighten it and it should work if that is the problem.
Finally I Found The Video Thank You Bro
no problem man! I just got a Seiko skx013 too!
Wow! You are an expert.
steve hagen 🤣 I wish
has this happened to your seiko?
cheers man, just sorted my pop's watch. 25 years and now still going strong.
I have also Seiko SKX and it just stops running randomly... It's really irritating.
@@Sm00th-0perator needs a servicee...probablyyy
dropped mine a few times. the rotor rattles and sometimes sticks. I assume a jewel bearing is broken but I'm going to see if simply opening and tightening that will fix it
How to replace the glass. Or where the shop for service?
I found a few places that do work but they were to expensive. I just would get some Ali-express crystal and a 20 dollar press like I have in the video and then press one on yourself.
hello sir, do you have DIY steps on how to pull back the crown lever for seiko 7002, coz I accidentally put in my crown without pressing the small lever, I could not adjust my watch & date. please help. thanks!!!
Sorry, no. I don't know much about watches other than this one thing.
maybe you can show how to repair a broken stam and crown . it just happened to my monster last night. damn!
I don't know how to repair watches i just found this was easy enough to do for me. Normally would probably just replace the whole movement since it is cheap.
great help!
just asking, my seiko diver's second hand skips/ jumps around when I shake the watch. sometimes it totally stops even if im wearing it, seemed stuck.. do you have a remedy? thank you
No idea maybe just replace the whole movement since they are cheap but it could be a lot of things.
thanks! that's the some problem with my watch too.
did I help? thanks for watching!
@@AM2PMReviews yes, you did. thanks.
I dropped my seiko once and it stopped working properly it doesnt track time and stops running after a couple minutes. I took it to a guy for repair and he said that there's a broken part that he said he can replace for around 80 bucks. I don't know if I should be suspicious because i'm wondering how can a part break after once drop when all these parts are tighten up together inside the watch ? Can I have a second opinion about this ?
Well 80 bucks isn't bad but you can just replace the whole movement for that price.
the SKX is a Seiko 7S26 automatic movement
now a lot of them are 4R36 (or non-Seiko branded NH36A).
hey man thanks for sharing your exp.
I have a brand new seiko 5 which make sound when I move it.
and the router isnt as fast as yoursand I feel like It stuck sometimes. is it normal ?
I have no clue. I just fixed my one main screw issue.
Sorry to be a pedant, James, but the rotor doesn't power the watch; the spring does that. The rotor winds the spring.
Great vid. Subbed!
oh that is true Christopher. you know what I meant. 🤣
@@AM2PMReviews Yeah, l did; a pedant, like l said... 😉
NOOOOO
the rotor rotates a contolled gear with a self brake ssytem, and that gear rotates another one attached to the spring , cause it to wind...
the first gera can turn clockwise or counterclockwise doesnt matter, it witll turn the second gear always in the same direction, causeing spring to wind up.
seikos are amazing
oh yeah love the movements and designs. I wish the SKX was still made but just thinner. then, it would be perfect. i forget what the new model is called.
bought un JAN a 7s26c Seiko. Went to technician because didn't retain charge....
the rear pendulum ...or rotor is tighter to move thsn other 2014 7s26....that moves freely the rotor.
may be too slack in strap and win't charge
strange.
@@AM2PMReviews Now the new one hit the fllor and pendulum is loosen. Well, works fine at last. I´ll take it again to Service.-
good luck with it.
Just both a custom seiko mod online with nh35 movement and suddenly the second stopped moving while wearing it. I had to wind and shake it again for it to move again. Then, it stopped again after few hours. Will this fix my seiko issue?
I am not sure it could be a lot of things.
Tnx for the vids man, very helpful. Just wanna ask you if my Seiko srp621 can be replace with nh36.?
I don't know. I would maybe look into some watch communities.
I have two SKX one SKX007 and one SKX009 both bought at two different times from two different stores. Both have the same problem...I set the time perfectly in the morning and wear it all day with no issues. Keeps great time. But at night when I go to bed I take it off and lay it on the night stand. When I wake up the time is off by 3-4 hours...I am lead to believe its something I maybe am doing wrong. only because both have the same problem....any thoughts???
i am not sure. It might be the main spring that holds the power? I don't know.
My seiko 5 stops after a couple minutes even if I shake it beforehand etc... any tips on how I can fix this myself even though I am not that handy at all??
have you tried what i did in the video?
@@AM2PMReviews I did! Now I am wondering if I didn't do it correctly or if something else is wrong with the watch
had same problem. watch kept stopping.ended up being the case was tooooooooooooooo tight (no loose rotor) re screwed case in just with a good nip..all good.
oh sweet! I can't believe how many people have the same issue!
Hi James,
What's wrong with my seiko skx009 ? Skx009 can't hold correct time.Sometimes the watch stops.
I am not sure. I would have it serviced or get a new movement. Whatever is cheaper.
if you dont know when was the last time watch was serviced...---ITS TIME!
GET A GOOD PRIVATE AN TRUSTFUL WATCHMAKER.
You should look into a strapcode bracelet, I have the super jubilee on my SKX173 and I love it
thatgiant I will look into it!
I need to reset the keys on my 7002 movement. How do I do that?
oh good luck lol
@@AM2PMReviews I’m guessing that’s not possible?
Have a LWO283 Heuer Pilot that does not store power. Runs for a few seconds then stops. Who should I send it to for a fix?
Hi I am not sure who the best watch repair place is in your area. I would google search it to see who is close by. If that doesn't work, there are a lot of watch guys who fix watches online as well like in watch community groups too.
@@AM2PMReviews what's a good watch community group?
What can I do if the rotor in detached for its base ? I can't find anything about it
oh I am not sure. Let me know what you come up with.
Where did you get that watch strap? I love that vintage look.
it came with another watch I bought. I wish I had the name of it. its really does look cool on my divers! Have you seen my other watch videos yet?
Not yet.
I believe you can hand wind as well? My SRP 777 turtle with the 4R36 movement has the hand winding feature. Is this the 7S26 movement?
Hey Keith, yeah this is the standard movement the 7S26 that is not able to be hand wound or hackable.
My cartier has the same issue. I opened it to fix as u did; only to find out that the screw is broken from middle. The place where you put screwdriver is one piece and screw shaft is stuck in the watch. Any fix?
i don't know what you are asking. I would take an expensive watch to the jeweler.
James Patton dude what.... the screw that holds the rotor is broken in 2 pieces. Thats it. Never mind i just fixed it. Went out to find the right size screwdriver and replacement screw and voila! It was just that one screw. Didn't even had to change the bearing. Thanks for the tut tho!
you need an watchmaker...he will need probably... to drill the broken shaft
You should use finger cots and then hold the rotor whilst tightening AFAIK. Oils from your fingers are corrosive.
oh yeah. good idea.
My Seiko keep stopping! I've done this method but the problem still there. Please help,should i service it again?
i am not sure. I wish i could help.
Haffemanhe Tv I have an idea maybe you can just buy a new movement since they are cheap and install it yourself?
@@AM2PMReviews Yeah im thinking to do that. By the way thanks for your opinion :)
@@AM2PMReviews where can you get a new movement? Seiko stopped making the vintage movements.
check if rotor is not touching in any place.
We mechanics, use a ink and we paint the metall blue, we mount everything,a nd after sometime we check if there is contact...
sometimes, movent is loose inside the case...an helps rotos touch on some place.
getting a trustfull watchmaker would be a good ideia specially if you dont know the last time your watch was serviced, dont run your watch without a service,
60 bucks! thanks man :)
No problem!
God I hope this fixes my trusty rusty skx. Fingers crossed
did it work?
@@AM2PMReviews well... Took case back off , everything was tight, I guess, bumped the balance wheel and it just woke up. And has kept on ticking since. There is what looks to be part of the spring poking out and touching a gear. But I don't know. It's working so I'm thrilled. Did I tell everyone I fixed it myself... Yes. But it was luck.
Well just watched this video again and that lil spring is in same spot touching same gear as mine so that's reassuring
@@AM2PMReviews and thank you. I appreciate this video. Was fun opening up my go to watch
Thanks it works! Best regards
You're welcome! I can't believe it has helped so many.
I think this might of happened to my skx 009 stopped ticking a few days ago! Only lasting an hour or so when shook! I’ll open it up up to see! Cheers man 👍🏻
good luck man!
You should look into the "optimum weight/rotor placement", for optimal winding performance. Good luck 👍
k81law oh where is that?
