Hey All,

I have been (unsuccesfully) trying to get some documentation/information on my Timor WWW. I picked it up a while ago and saw already that the movememnt retianing screws are missing, I want to replace the crystal and new mainspring...plus whatever else I find along the way. I'm early on in my journey of watch tinkering and so looking for any documentation that can help me orde rthe correct parts (not sure what size the missing screws should be for example). 

Does anyone have any info on this movement or can point me in the right direction? I tried some reddit forums without success and Mark kindly pointed me to this group so hoping it's a better place to seek advice!

Many Thanks!

The base movement is noted by one source to be in the same grouping as the Schild 1203, so that could be a place to start. Modifications may be present for the military spec watch, but basic components such as the mainspring are likely carried over. Crystals are often best sorted out by directly measuring the case opening and evaluating the hand heights.

Salut à tous,

J'ai essayé (sans succès) d'obtenir de la documentation/des informations sur mon Timor WWW. Je l'ai ramassé il y a quelque temps et j'ai déjà vu que les vis de maintien du mouvement sont manquantes, je veux remplacer le cristal et le nouveau ressort principal... plus tout ce que je trouve en cours de route. Je suis au début de mon parcours de bricolage de montres et je cherche donc toute documentation qui peut m'aider à commander les bonnes pièces (je ne sais pas quelle taille les vis manquantes devraient être par exemple).

Quelqu'un a-t-il des informations sur ce mouvement ou peut-il m'orienter dans la bonne direction ? J'ai essayé certains forums reddit sans succès et Mark m'a gentiment dirigé vers ce groupe, j'espère donc que c'est un meilleur endroit pour demander conseil !

Merci beaucoup !

As tu trouves des réponses à ton problème car je suis face au même problème en ce moment même. Je n’ai pas le cache poussière… Comment as tu procédé ? 

Merci pour ta réponse et belle journée à toi !

    • That’s a nice idea, But i’m committed to providing this site as a gift to the watch repair community as my thank you for my incredible life i’ve had in this business. Ive done well and unless my financial circumstances change then i’m more than happy to foot the bill. If circumstances do change then be assured that I will make an appeal. For now, I’m comfortable with the way things are and I am extremely delighted to remove Google Ads from this site and to stop Patreon, it feels like a major step forward 🙂 Sorry, I missed your reply, I got blinded by another poster in this thread. Yes - I can confirm that I have always seen WRT as a not-for-profit website, and therefore - not a business as such. I’m lucky and have done well in my life due to a decision made in my teens to start a watch repairing apprenticeship which has sustained myself and my family for many years now. Consider this my small way of paying it forward. Ive been committed to keeping the site alive on a technical and financial level for over 10 years now and I have zero plans to change that. Thank you for your kind words by the way. And as for your wish - nobody can control what happens in life, if something happens to me I have things in place with my family but I’m just not comfortable talking about my personal business - I wish a certain person would respect that, but i’ve calmed down now - i’m only human 😄  
    • Yes, exactly. I've seen a few different versions, but mine has the blue water symbol, not white.    I think it's Acrylic. The case is plastic so I would the is the lens would be too.
    • Hi there Josh, welcome to the forum.
    • From the same listing, the back side: I would guess that the back pops off rather than the front. You can see a little groove there where the caseback sits over the winding stem, rather than a case tube. Look for an indent or notch around the back. It might be possible to pry this off from almost anywhere on the back if it sits right against the rubber strap. The movement looks like it is from the Ronda RL family (015 or 115 or something? I forget which numbers have a calendar and which don't)
    • I'd expect a similar notch somewhere around the rear to pop that off.
