All are testable and fixable with some learn and skill advancement. The coil could also be faulty as well as a gummed up movement, even the quartz crystalcan fail, but thats quite rare. ![]() I cant comment on yours in particular without some research but its very possible. If i remember rightly a lot of the circuit boards even some pretty old ones lifted straight off held in place by a few screws. I did this at the start of last year with a whole bucket load of quartz movements, it went a long way with my understanding and testing of them. You'd be well advised to practise on some scrap quartz watches first to get a feel. Hey CGC, its doable for you but probably not as a first try. If I could find a working circuit board is it a nightmarish process to replace it? Could anyone offer any advice on how best to approach this? I'm guessing that replacing the board probably isn't a plug and play procedure. I generally fix everything I own myself, but I haven't delved into watch repair and I'm not sure it would be the best idea to start with this one. However, I essentially know nothing about watch repair. This makes me think $800-900 is a bit excessive if not completely ridiculous. I have done a little digging and it look like these circuit boards generally sell in the $200-400 range NOS. They are saying the labor to do the repair is about $400 and just the circuit board is around $900. ![]() They say that the movement is unavailable but they can replace the circuit board and get it working again. Did the movement actually die and not the battery? Did the repairman damage the movement? Who knows? I have subsequently talked to a repair facility authorized by Corum in the US. It seems a little odd to me that the movement suddenly died but I have no way of knowing what actually happened here. The repairman said the movement is bad and needs to be replaced. It was recently taken to a watch repair shop to have the battery replaced.
