There should be a screw on the loose end of the metal battery bracket. The band has been repaired with a plastic cord. I could remove a link and it would a continuous band again.

Job 44 – 3 Watch Batteries

There was a variety of symptoms on this job. The Seiko had had some fogginess inside the case indicating possible water damage. The battery was indeed damaged and had leaked, but the watch worked with a new battery. The Timex was normal, not running, but had no battery in it at all. The Nautica’s second hand was keeping good time, but the second hand was jumping 2 seconds at a time instead of ticking normally one second at a time.

For all three, a new battery was all they needed.

Job 9 – Wind-Up Tea Cup Music Box

Mainspring

4.7mm wide, ~~245mm long, with a ‘T’ end. The narrow part of the opening for the mainspring ‘T’ is 2.65mm and the wide part is over 5mm. Thickness is 0.18mm. Perhaps if you can’t find the exact end, I can grind down a spring with no end on it or convert some simple end to work.
