Problem

[mf11]

Looking for some help please guys.

I have the watch below and love it but it's not holding it's automatic charge at all now.

Is there anyone out there (UK hopefully) that could perhaps replace my auto movement with a battery / wind-up one?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Michael.

mf11 what about bring it to watch smith let him fix movement. I have read in the past a couple of UK members who have such contacts that they are happy with. Can not tell you who do not remember, maybe shout box one will help you, worth a shot.

These Watcheden models are cheap, very low quality and designed to be thrown away when they break (which is often). Don't waste your money on those. It looks like a good idea that end up costing more. Money down the garbage chute.

No watchsmith I know would touch them. Replacing the movement is not an option (dial, hands, date wheel won't work with a different movement)

Totally agree, your best bet, and most economical solution is to find a better quality replacement.

Bin it and get yourself a decent 7750 based GMT . You've got opportunity to upgrade , so take it.
