This is my cheap and not so cheerful daily wear watch. Less than a year old, and already on its second battery change. When setting the time after changing the battery, I noticed that the golden surround around the date window was sitting proud of the window opening and that the minutes and hour hands were catching on it.
After finding a tutorial to remove the stem and crown, I was able to pop the mechanism out and to gently push the golden surround back in its window. The minutes hand is working normally now, but the hour hand does not move. The seconds hand is working.
Instead of buying a new watch to replace the pulsar, I’ve signed up to the forum for advice and will spend the money getting the Tissot serviced. (see my other thread)
As for the pulsar, I will try to fix it myself – As its movement seems to be quite common, it should be a good one to practice on for my first try at anything more involved than changing a battery or a strap.
What should I do next?
Thank you for the advice,
Remi
