Looking for this Timex (or same module)

Post11 Dec 2009, 09:05

Hi,
I've this timex since I 've seventeen. This watche has 26 years old! :oops:
The last week I changed the battery and she worked fine. After an hour I hear the alarm and the display go out! :-( :-(
The battery is OK.
I looked in the watche everything seemed OK, (no acid) but she refused to work. I attempted to disassemble the module but I broked the light lamp. :-( :-(
The evidence is the module is dead now!!
Well now I'm looking for the same watche or module to resuscitate it.

If anybody knows where I can find this type of watche....

Thanks.

Hi Safir,
this is one of the less common Timex's but they do turn up on ebay from time to time. With regular searches and some patientce you'll get one. :-)

I may have the same volume here. If you pop the back yours may have 426 printed on the board. I have the a very similar model here in chrome but with a blue face. It is showing signs of life so I just stripped it ddown an cleaned it, ill let you know if its active and post a pic.

Sorry Safir not even close mine has no text other than the 426. Yours according to other Timex I have on my site may be a M-220. I have certainly seen a M-443. Sorry I couldnt be more help but will keep an eye out for you
