Seiko Quartz Final Restoration

Sit back and enjoy as we trouble shoot this Seiko quartz watch from the 1980s. The original movement is 8123A with 5 jewels. Could this Seiko quartz watch be a Kobayashi Maru ( a no win scenario)?

    Keep up the good work, Nice to see new individuals getting in to this hobby, The thing I have found with some Seiko quartz movements is to just lubricate lightly and then wind the hands around several times in both directions and then put a brand new battery in it and leave it sitting for some time whilst randomly winding the hands, again in both directions, Always remember that quartz movements tend to have a hacking function so pulling the stem out to set the time will stop the seconds hand from rotating, so remember to push the stem back in after time setting has been achieved,

    Same here - Canadian and my Dad left behind his 1954 Bulova 10CSC, which I remember from early childhood, and coincides with his graduation year. case is same as yours but dial numerals are at 12, 3, 6 and 9. I have yet to figure out how to let down the mainspring. It’s not a simple matter of pulling back the click, because if you remove the automatic works from the main upper plate, things are still under tension and can go flying. Also it frequently goes ‘bzik,’ which seems likely to be caused by the wrong grease in the barrel.

It seems there could be more than one click or ratchet between the auto works and mainspring. If I remove the top plate of the automatic works, things want to fly away, indicating there’s energy stored, but it hasn’t been released it yet. Any idea if there’s a technical service manual online for this movement?

    Really enjoyed watching the video, Im a hobbyist like you,I’m on to my 34th watch. I’d advised getting a casing cushion and to keep stripping the movement down and rebuilding it. This I found helps with dexterity with the tweezers and your understanding will develop over the movement. Use one dip to clean jewels and the pellet fork. Rodico is another essential and is cheap, I use it for everything. Good luck for your future watches. P.s. get a magnet it can really help with finding missing springs and screws. Just keep it well away from your screwdrivers.

    As for the setting bridge and spring almost all movement makers had a one-of-a-kind setting bridge in order to clear any copy right issues. Part suppliers like Best Fit have pictures in their catalogs that has a drawing or picture of each bridge. This movement is mostly the same as a Durowe 570 as a 11 1/2 ligne and the picture shows there is a spring that is missing/broken on the bridge. Somewhere I don't recall at the moment there are free downloadable copies of the catalog.
