My collection is very narrow. 90% are 9154/9150. I have about 45 of them at the moment!
Narrow in time period and type lol
I think it is now an obsession

Does anyone have a copy of the above.
Trying to ascertain:
a) should the bezel be bi directional or unidirectional (as per standard diving watch).
b) the time change stem seems to have a sprung...

John, you are giving away our secrets :) ;-)
I got a couple of junk items to practice on. I came to the conclusion that if it wasnt a hummer then it wasnt worth repairing. The main bits that go wrong are rare and very expensive if you do find...

My 9162s , 2 of my Tiger Eye electrosonic (appears to be tungsten carbide case), unique one off project watch to using a 9162 to mimic a Bulova accutron spaceview...
I may be stripping down a 9150 marstron in the next couple of weeks, I will see if I can photo some of the stripdown.
Therefore it may the pin allocation mark on the transistor. Just looked like possible damage when I zoomed into the photo.
Looks like the next move will require some stripping down.
I did notice 1 thing, on the circuit board there is a black transistor with 3 legs. I noted on the photo that there was what looked like there might some damage to its body (shows up as a blue chip...
OK if the balance wheel moves freely and the second hand moves then it looks like the drive chain is not jammed.
One thing to try is to carefully put the battery in without using the clamp (make...
What you have there is a 9150. I have 6 newtronics, of 4 different types (it was originally thought that there were only 2 types.
Common fault is that the coils go open circuit.
Also note that...
Got exactly the same blue xl
Yes I was for a very short while.
Well JP you have done it now. Junk 9162 movement purchased (£55 !!!), 9162 manual downloaded. Arrives tomorrow. Think this is going to be a long and frustrated slog !!!!!!
First thing I need to do is find out how to repair 9162 movements otherwise this will get expensive :eek: . Got 1 electrosonic and this one off 9162 from electric watches

Looks like ones JP had.
9154s are pretty good, 9150s are a pain :)

I have a mishmash of photos but next time a i do a complete strip down I can photo it. Pity as I have done three 9154 and one 9150 in the last month that I could have photo'ed. Have some of a 1964...
If anyone wants the full technical handbook for 9150 with 9154 appendix (in English) then let me know and I will send a link. This is rarer than a 56H for £50 ;-)
Just Posting my collection of Electro mechanicals 1970-75. 24 of them all working (strip and rebuild myself). Got one more which is a poor newtronic. Interesting, it was thought that there were 2...
Nope
