    it is fixed now, i open the case and put the second hand back but the hand already leave some scratches on the glossy dial.. well.. it is what it is..

    to brighten my mood.. i put back my Dependable Certina DS.. the DS stand for Double Security.. i like tough watches.. on my new material strap of course..

    might be the way to go maybe less chance of parts being shuck out of place with a digital

    You should have left it right there , it looks like some rare regulator style watch


    Maybe it just wasn't/isn't a snug fit on the pinion?, in which case it will fall off again.
    I'm surprised there's enough room with the front glass to allow it to come right off whilst in the watch.

    i have put the hand back (not easy) and pin it back with a soft wooden toothpick .. i dont know if it will stay out for good or not.. time will tell.. i'm not to worry, it will be replaced with a Laco someday when i've enough saving from my strap making fund..

    btw, off topic.. how good is a miyota 9015 on the Dugena Festa Mike? i never experience any miyota 9015.. kind of curious since they are highly rated for accuracy , durability and smooth movement..

    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    I'm sure many people will agree, the 9015 is an excellent movement.
    A very slick (good) winder when manually winding or indeed setting the hands.

    There is no downside to the 9015 movement.... and it's being used more and more as a worthy replacement to the 2824 by manufacturers.
