I love learning from you, I didn't think these could be repaired or cleaned I thought they were just replaced as I've seen clock parts in stores to replace quartz movement. Does my heart well to know this, and again I especially like how you are just as careful and respectful to this plastic movement as you are with antique mechanical movement. Very nice and thumbs up here. 👍
I can't believe I managed to fix my wife's favourite clock! It had stopped working, and when I went to check the internal parts, I accidentally dropped it, and all the pieces scattered across the floor. Thanks to you, I was able to understand the purpose of the cogs and the mechanics, put it all back together, and now it works! My childhood curse of breaking every clock I touched has finally ended 😅
Now I remember why it didn't work years ago when I tried it. Might I suggest to us amateurs that's you video tape as you disassemble and then rewind to see what goes where and how. Good luck winding lining up the gears with the different apertures.😢😊 Note to vlogger the wires that attach the Dynamo to the motor will detach if they are not located and isolated carefully.
Thanks to this video I managed to get my 30 year old clock working. Although I have never been able to fix the pendulum . It seems to have it's own battery, since one battery alone runs the clock hands.
Thank you very much! This video is really helpful for it gives useful ideas how to repair and restore old damaged clocks. So that we can avoid throwing old damaged clocks into garbage or side of road or street.
I fully disassembled the gears and inspected for damage and dirt. Didn’t see anything. Put it all back together but it still doesn’t turn the hands. I see the upper gears turning but the hands don’t move. The outer black gear to set the time is hard to turn, which I suspect is keeping the hands from turning. When I take out a gear in the system everything spins freely. How can I figure out which part is making it stick?
I couldn't remove mine as the little cap that holds the hands on will not come off. I got the back off while in the clock due to the clock being rubber. Once I had the back off I had another issue. The very first wheel will not come off. I am not sure what is holding it. Might the teeny pin holding it have a wide end that keeps it from being removed? Thx.
Came for the resin printing, but I really enjoy these timekeeping videos. Question - do you ever find the problem with a quartz watch/clock being the crystal itself? Many years ago I did hobbyist level experimentation with creating timekeeping circuits and firmware. In trying to squeeze as much accuracy as possible out of the project I fell down the rabbit hole of testing and cherry-picking 32.768khz crystals for accuracy. I should dig out some of those old circuits to see if crystal aging has had any effect in 20-25 years. Always wondered if crystal aging/drift was a problem watchmakers had to deal with. Just thinking out loud.
New printer coming next week. Review in 7 days. I was in the wireless business for a long time. Good crystals don’t go bad easily. Interested in what you find. Thanks for watching.
I went back and looked at the last two years of the arch repairs. Almost every quartz watch failed from a drop or water damage. Interesting note I never put to memory.
Hi, I took out the battery to paint my clock. Upon putting it back in I went to adjust the time. Now the long hand is loose. The others work fine but it hangs & is loose. Do you know how to fix this? Thank you.
You either have a hand that is pressure fit or one with a small nut. Use the setting wheel in back to move the hour hand to 3:00. Then check to see if you need to push down carefully on the minute hand. If there is a small nut, turn the nut clockwise to tighten down the hand
Hi I have a plastic decorative desk clock. I can’t figure out how to remove the plastic face to access the clock hands to remove them. From the back I don’t see any screws or method to remove the clock works away from the body of the clock. Any suggestions? Can I send a picture ?
If it is an older mechanical movement I would have to see it. Newer versions are quartz and only se a variety of movements. If newer and a battery did not work to get the clock up and running then a new movement would be recommended. Cost to service a mechanical clock is approximately 170.00 but may be higher if there are major parts replaced. Battery versions may be around 45.00 to 60.00 for a new clock movement.
@@watchesandjewelry IThe movement is battery (N) operated quartz. It has a second hand too. Would it help if I sent pictures? The new movement will it be Swiss, German or China made? The original movement says Swiss Made.
Do you know why the chime will not sound on my quartz battery operated clock? I hear the 'click' sound at the top if the hour but the chime does not sound. What do you think the problem is? The click keeps good time. Thank you!
Quartz chime clocks have one major flaw in most of them. If you reset the time by turning the hands counter clockwise, you run the risk of bending or breaking the internal mechanism that the clock uses to make the electronic connection to set off the chime. Once that happens, it usually isn’t worth fixing. Most manuals, if the clock included one specify exactly how to set the time. Almost always, using the setting knob in the back of the clock and turning it clockwise. This is a perfect o Ken I have seen for many years, especially in the fall when we set clocks back one hour.
It has been a while, but here goes. That little metal cylinder contains a quartz crystal tuning fork that oscillates at 32,768 times per second. That is 2 to the 15th power oscillations per second. That is divided down by 2 in a silicon chip 15 times, which gives you one pulse per second. that same chip has a logic circuit that produces a pulse only when the last few divide stages are all in the same state. So you get one narrow pulse each second. That drives the coil of a stepping motor, i.e. a motor that moves one step per pulse. From there it is all gears to slow down enough to drive the second hand, then the minute hand and finally the hour hand.
My crystal clock runs fine on its back but when hanging on the wall, the second hand climbs to just below quarter-to then stalls but continues to kick. The hand is not slipping on the drive shaft. New battery doesn’t help. Any ideas?
Sounds as though the gears in the clock are wearing out. I would strongly recommend a new replacement movement. Look on the back for a number on the movement itself. Also, if you replace it yourself, make sure that you get the movement that fits the hands of the clock you have. Some hands are keyed (notched) Some are round.
Great info for the gears, etc. Do you have any videos on troubleshooting the electronics on the board for a quartz clock? I have a German quartz movement with bell strike Seth Thomas Corsair Ships Clock, Model # 1036. Not sure of the Model # of the movement as the label faded. some #'s on the plastic housing: 52699, 19-98 CE Germany. Currently the movement keeps time well, the bell strike contacts on the circuit board activate on the hour but does not send current to actual bell strike which is separate and has pos. neg. wires to it from the circuit board. Appears that some component is not directing voltage to the bell strike after the contacts make on the circuit board. The bell strike works when I supply power to it separately. Can it be repaired?
It depends. If you have access to the hands you just pull them off vertically and gently. If you can't access the hands from the front you usually have to remove some screws on the back side. This will then allow you to remove the glass or plastic and access the hands. The movement is usually held in place by some plastic molded in clips. You gently move then to the side (one side at a time) to release the movement. Then you follow this video.
Can u fix a seiko mechanism. Mine stopped working it has 4 leads one for battery and one to control clock melody. I'm not able to find a replacement. Well I cant find even a parts shop that Carrie's it. I was hoping someone has rebuilt em
Well... This sounds like one of my favorite seiko watches I bought in the mid 80s... Although I know, seiko and citizen make watches with alarms today... If, for some reason your watch stops any alert tones i.e. melodies, alarms ect... and is older then six years, you will be hard pressed to find a working replacement. (Yes, occasionally, they show up on ebay, but rarely). If it is newer, i.e. within 1 to 5 years old, I would suggest sending it back to seiko directly or with an authorized servicer. These movements are not typically available direct to most watch service locations, and almost never directly to the end user. Seiko has an extensive retail foothold. I would find a local seiko dealer (small shop, not chain) to help you... Just keep in mind, older watches go out of production, and parts become difficult to get.
Now... As far as the melody clocks... We stopped selling them when you could buy them for cost at Sam's club. Seiko does not repair them. If the clock is in warranty... One year old or newer, they will replace it direct. If not, they will tell you to buy a new one... (the reason I do not work with seiko clocks any longer)
Sorry to say that if you have a quartz clock with a pendulum that doesn’t work, you will have to replace it. It is usually due to worn moving parts that causes misalignment
@@watchesandjewelry Wow, thank you so much, Peter! I purchased a really cool "Panerai" wall clock (over $200) that just arrived today, which has a "Gürgen Bålsche" 5820 caliber quartz movement, and it's operation is very poor. I'm hoping I didn't somehow strip a gear when setting it. But your video is a life saver, and thank you so much for helping us mere mortals!
Hi Pete I've got a quartz clock and it always stops around the same time. (6:40 or 7:40) Otherwise it runs perfectly. Do you have an idea what I could be?
First I would check hands. Make sure the hour hand isn’t touching something on dial. Next I would take the clock apart to see if there is debris inside.
Tnx for the quick response Pete! If you tap on the clock it starts working again... But when the arm for the seconds comes @nr1 then it stops ticking. When you tap the clock it starts again... 😂 I'll check tomorrow of there's some debris inside!
How big is the clock? Large clocks with long hands. Say more then 12 inches can sometimes wear a clock movement out. In which case they would need a high torque movement
i bought a batch of these , i can hear it ticking but they don't turn the hands. I've tried everything ,driving me mad. They are usa TAkane cost $10 each so not impressed.

Yes, replacing is preferably to servicing when it works, but not all movements are the same. The diameters of the shafts may vary between movements, with the net result that the old clock's hands won't fit. Too small a hole diameter in the hand may bind the concentric shafts together and then the clock won't run. Some movements have a threaded shaft surrounding the shafts for the hands, and some don't. The shafts stick out further on some movements than on others.
Dont use again the ordinar wrist watch screw driver the locks or clamps of machine will be broken. Use the sheet or blade of iron singl side approximately 8 mm wide. And there is no need to pullout the time setting wheel.

Mine is running too fast and even go in the reverse direction. Help
If your quartz clock is running too fast then it will need to be replaced. There is an electronic issue with the pulse and not practical to repair.
Are jewelry merchants the best to ask about clock repair?
Check with your local jeweler to see if they have repair experience with clocks and watches on site. Most jewelry stores send them out. Some repair everything on site.

May I ask how can I fix the magnetized rotor gear? It doesn't turn half a second but it still makes movement/pulses. Thanks!
Is the gear broken?
Peter Grande nope. the teeth are complete and it has strong magnetism too.
So. If it is not broken and if you have cleaned it it should work. If not then replacing the clock movement is the best bet
Hey Pete what oil do you use?
Oh ... so that's why they don't even last a year😅

Yes the hands is an antique coca cola clock that the hands don't stay put even when I tighten it when I move then they don't stay in place.
