Hi all,

If anybody could help me with pointing me to the right site where I could download a Technical repair guide for the Seiko quartz 6N52, I would very appreciate it. I need to find a stem for this type of watch, but unfortunatelly when I bought it on Cousins UK, as it stated under the description, it is for this type, it didn’t fit as it was to small and it didn’t do the job. All parts have their own number, which I think the only option is through looking at a Technical guide I suppose? Thank you!

Hi,

Yes, I got this one. I could put it in, but as it seems to be too thin I suppose. It did click in but hands did not want to move. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, or there should be different one for this model. No clue. I’m new to this. 

Thank you for your response!

Sorry without having it in hand and seeing it myself I don’t think I can help you more. The only suggestion I have is that the keyless works are out of place/loose which might give you those symptoms. Maybe pictures would help us to help you?

I think it would be helpful if you gave us a better description of why you need a new stem?

the reason I'm asking is from the description sounds like you're having a problem beyond the stem. In other words you may have to disassemble and see why the stem is not doing what it's supposed to be doing.

Hi,

thank you for your reply. I’ve uploaded some of the images of this particular watch. I hope that helps to get the general idea. I’m no expert on this. Could’t do any better. Probably I would need to dissasemble the movement to get more info about what might be the issue here? Thanks!

Not much information seems to be available for this movement. Can't find any technical or replacement movements.

But the first two links talk about the movements themselves. The reason for the 53 is you get down to the comments they suggest an alternative but they're not sure. You'd have to look at the specifications of the movement you have versus the suggestion of alternative. The alternative comes from basically the OEM division of Seiko. So that their suggestion third link would be the replacement movement and I've attached the PDF of the manual for that. Probably the easy way to tell is see if the stems of the same but the manual may be close enough to help you with yours but based on the cost the movement and the probably better just to get a new movements unless you just want the fun of taking it apart.

      Did you just swear at me matey?? I’m sorry, I’m not divulging personal information but there’s always personal reasons. There’s not much more than I can do other than plod along as best I can. However, my health is good now and I’m regularly getting plenty of exercise to keep it that way 👍 You know what. The ads don’t even cover a small percentage of what it costs to serve this site. I find most of it personally. If there are complaints then so be it. I do my best.  in fact - I have zero issues turning them off. Would that make the complainers happy?

      Same question that was asked last time Hakan, and emphasis was placed on it. It was ignored. The thread should still be there, if not I have a copy of his reply.

      This is probably the single most important point. One of my best friends, 48 years old at the time, suffered a massive stroke about 15 years ago. He barely survived, but his life was never the same after that. If you had asked me back then to guess which of my friends might have a stroke and nearly die, he would have been the very last one I'd have picked. He was perfectly healthy, played tennis three times a week, ran a successful business, was full of life, and had a wonderful wife and well-behaved teenage kids. The harsh truth is, we never know when it’s "game over." @Mark, I truly wish you a long, happy, and successful life. But have you given any thought to some kind of backup plan for WRT in case the worst should happen? Is there anyone who could keep the site going? If you can reassure us in some way, it would mean more than a lot to us!

      Looks like glass with that bevel edge.

      Update: The demagnetization only helped temporarily, maybe it pulled the wheels into a position where they liked each other. I have to adjust the sub second hand as it is a bit angled upwards and catching the minute hand stopping the whole movement but before this happened there were some wild deviations. HWGIKE#58 Alarm clock, cooked in hot cleaning fluid and oiled gently. This is a movement so I count it. 🙂 A while ago it tried to fly away one day, it was on my windows sill, we had strong wind the curtain flew like a flag and doing so encouraged my clock to do the same...  went out and ended up on the roof above the entrance door, its door in pieces but the clock itself suffered no damage otherwise. The original glass was already broken when I received it I still have the bottom part in two pieces. The new "glass" is acrylic. It also had a paper in the back in the case inside but it disintegrated, I still have a little bit of  piece of that too.     HWGIKE#59 Durowe 870 / Times M84 This particular instance is a D870, when I saw its worn out contact pin I thought that it must be a design flaw, and here we go: https://17jewels.info/movements/d/durowe/durowe-870/ An incredible movement again where the balance wheel drives the train and has two magnets one for the balance wheel/coil and one for the pallet. The magnet for the pallet is basically the "draw" one direction. The coil is about 1.8kOhm and one end is in contact with the main plate and the other end is soldered to a contact pin which is insulated by the means of putting it into a jewel and this contact pin is rubbing against a wire getting the energy/impulse as it is passing. Behind the contact pin there is an "impulse jewel" not sure why is it there... the wire seems to hit the impulse jewel first then the contact pin but maybe it is there only for insulation purposes? I was almost certain that the screw holding down the battery - (minus) clamp had no insulation washer.. i only noticed the green stuff around it coming from battery leakage... anyway the + and - had a shortcut which took me a while to realize.. had to fabricate one insulating washer on my own. The jewel settings were dirty but not it is all cleaned and oiled. The contact pin might work for a while but I am sure it has a short life. It is a front loader the whole thing is held together by the case so it is not possible to regulate it without putting it all together and taking the movement out of the case again, very inconvenient. A wonderful movement but not made for eternity only for the consumer market.
