ANIMAL Watch - Operating Instructions

Dear Friends.

I've found my Animal W001 operating instructions. But I couldn't find the round box that came with it when I bought it in Birmingham, England nearly 17 years ago. The watch is not moving because the battery is dead and some batteries don't react well with the watch electrical component...and I don't know why.

Anyway, I really missed the present of this watch on my wrist...and I believed some of you out there (who have had the experience of owning the same type of the watch) feel the same way too:-)

Thanks for reading.

*thinking of sending it to the UK for complete overhaul. Something to pass down to the next generation...

Seiko Divers 7S26A Balance Wheel kong (kaput)!

My Seiko SKX007 had stopped moving for about 3-4 weeks ago. Today I went to Seiko workshop to understand the root cause as well as to fix the problem. The watch smith said the balance wheel gone "kaput". I don't know what the reason is and how it happens. The watch smith had it replaced with the new one together with some tweaking to the watch setting.

"Itu belenwil apa bikin?", "Itu belenwil...serupa dia punya hati la." jawab Aso kedai tu...

And now my SKX007 is back to "life" again.

Thanks but no thanks! The fixing comes with no guarantee unless I choose to get the engine fully overhauled, which I did about two years ago If I'm not mistaken. The full overhaul is going to cost me more than I could afford at this moment.

So wait and see how long it's going to last.

Until the next time for overhaul.

Cheers.

Ps: this is the only watch that I have right now. I 've sold the rest to the devils :-) The world is not enough, but I had enough of it :-))))
