Hello good morning. To change the battery of the Seiko 2000, once it is installed, do you need to reset something, or just change it? thank you so much. I just don't understand what it says on the front of the cover. Thanks again.

Hello my friend first thumbs up for your great work. I see that you are always lucky to get some spare parts from the beautiful old vintage watches. Had maybe only a question I'm looking for almost 1 year for the Seiko UC-3000 (UW-02 in Chrome) 2 front pushers as they broke away when removing the front pushers (clips) and I but because of the two defective Front pushers now synonymous not want to buy a new clock, you may know where man such front pusher (in chrome) still come from? I'm almost on Verwzeifeln ... Thanks in advance.

Hello sir! My UC-2000 will power on and function perfectly for anywhere from 3-48 hours. At some point though, it will freeze on the transmission screen regardless if I pressed the transmission button or not. Do you know what the issue could be? It appears you are doing repairs again, if this is something you believe you could fix, I would be interested. Also worth noting, the four screws I use to keep the battery in place are of two different sizes, but do keep the battery shield(?) In place. Thanks!

@@VintageDigitalWatches Located in Minnesota, USA. Thanks for the quick reply. Yeah, it is weird. Once it freezes on the transmission screen, I have to take the battery out. Replacing the battery immediately gets it working again for however long. I am able to move between transmission screens and other screens as I please, but after a while I'll look down and it'll be on transmission and frozen. Also worth noting (maybe related?) the stopwatch screen LCD is faded, but no other screens. Thanks again, I absolutely love this watch and get so many compliments!

About that broken piezo - it most likely is repairable. I have replaced a piezo transducer in a watch before, and it's pretty easy. They use epoxy to attach it to the case back, so a bit of heat breaks it loose quite easily - I just boiled mine in a pan of water for a few minutes and it fell off. The replacement can be stuck on with regular epoxy - you only need a tiny amount. Any excess that squeezes out can be cleaned up with acetone. The replacement piezo doesn't have to be exactly the same size and shape, just as long as you make sure to place it so the contact lines up with the spring.

If I'm reading 20 ohms from the coil terminals, but they are attached to the watch, and the watch is powered by the battery: Would this reading apply to the coil, or are there more components in the watch that add to the resistance? Wouldn't the coil's circuit read independently regardless if the battery were attached, and the watch is assembled?
