RickHiC Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 It has worked fine for many weeks, but I didn't have to set the date very often as it's usually on the winder. I put it on this morning, however, and pushing in the 10:00 set button with a pin no longer works. I don't feel any resistance when pushing, and the date doesn't budge. Anybody else experience this with an A7753 watch? I'm ready to start pulling it apart, but I was hoping it might be an easy fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this might sound daft but have you tried resetting date by hand through all the dates then retrying the pusher.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 It is actually a very common problem. The gen has the same issue and it is has a dedicated 2 or 3 piece tube within the movement ring to ensure the pusher stays on path. The rep has a less substantial stem and the tolerances are not as tight on the hole in the movement ring. I learned this when I sent a rep and a gen to Ziggy for service at the same time and he did a quick comparison. But make no mistake, over the years both have required repair on that "quickset" date pusher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
