Can someone fill me in on the newer Timex watches? I noticed that their quartz movements have a more sweeping second hand and I like it! It seems to f...

I think you guys are right. I just noticed it on YouTube and they always show the second had sweeping.

It’s a weird watch to be sure. I wonder how the movement compares to the new 7s26 replacement?

I had a bunch of Ana/digi watches which I really liked. Unfortunately almost every single one of them broke by themselves. I took out the batteries and stored them and on all of them, the analog part broke. Then there are quartz movements. Try and find people to fix quartz movements. Not many can be found easily. I have several Swiss made quartz - somehow they all developed a problem. My T-touch developed tons of problems.

The Apple Watch is the only pure digital that never developed a problem but that's because you need to buy a new one every 5 years or so and the battery is a problem.

The real truth is that somehow most of us need to figure out how to repair watches - especially quartz movements.

I only know a few people that wear really expensive watches. But they can afford them. Most people cannot.

OK I was able to source a serviced and calibrated movement!

NICE!!!!!!! Really nice!

I'm trying to decide if I will sell all of my watches. It never occurred to me that if I leave them around they would break on their own.

It's beautiful at night, but I agree. Sometimes I like it, sometimes not.

This watch still looks cool - what a 70's look!

The movement fires right up with the smallest movement.

Check out this aged look

The dial used to be pure white! Now it has an aged look. This is a nice and slim watch. The entire dial glows after being exposed to light.

E210 - One of my favorites!

This is my Citizen E210. This the European version with sapphire crystal. Love the Chronograph and analog looking alarm!

Still wearing this one until my 6309 movement comes in

This is my backup 6309. Waiting for a new 6309 movement to fix my main watch. To me, the 6309-7040 is so comfortable to wear.

Modded monster

Yes, I know it's modded, but that's what we used to do long ago. This is my first watch I modded. The orange hand is a Yao. I painted the tip of the s...

Anyone know what this Seiko movement could be?

It seems unmarked and of course I never wrote down what it was.

Seiko 6309 Movements where?

A long time ago you could find Seiko 6309 movements all over the place. Where can you find a movement now? Any ideas (I know about the India market)....
