Thread: Sector 250 Ana Digi oddity

    Sector 250 Ana Digi oddity



    This may or may not interest anyone but I found it so.

    Bought this watch a while back as a working watch from a Hong Kong dealer. It was NOS and came to me working and has done so since.

    Tonight, I tried the backlight and saw it was very weak so I dug out my tools and batteries to fit a new set.

    It takes 3. Two for the light and digital portion and one for the analogue side (I think that's the right way round).

    That isn't the interesting part as many have this

    The interesting part is that it is a movement with a redundant pusher contact. Check the top left as you view photo. The movement has the contact BUT no button on the case.

    Anyone else come across this?

    Weird

    Takes 2 x LR41 button cells.
    Only ones I can find are Alkaline. Is that correct?

    Well, LR41 is the correct battery for the digital side
