    Service on Vintage Timex Q

    Just wondering if these can be serviced

    Runs OK when flat, just on the wrist appears to stop now and then

    Yes they can be serviced but so far I have not had much luck with the Q quartz or Electric Timex with electronic balance.

    I think the balance staff pivots wear the bearing and then too much end play results in only working face up or down.

    Often a scrapper watch might bear fruit.

    Movement number is on the dial sometimes the acrylic crystal has to be removed to see.

    Last 4 numbers for example 4378 are movement 43 made in 1978.

    Good luck and stay safe.
