Old As Dirt Timex I Fixed It

[ken]

Got lucky with this old timex,

was dead as a door nail. I put a battery in and the balance was having none of it, I then tried to check the contacts, they looked fine, while playing around with the battery I noted that when half out it was working, simple fix just a bit of wax paper under the battery and she up and running. Not to sure the date but I'm thinking late 60s 70s

That's a bit of a collectors item, being electronic! It probably deserves a full service. :)

Geo to my surprise it's working great. Thought I'd let it run for a spell.
