Orient led touch watch opening?

[Kasper]

Hi all,

anyone an idea how to open and take this one apart?


do i have to pop off the top?

Piotr has stripped one on his site which might offer you a few clues.. .. http://www.crazywatches.pl/orient-touchtron-led-1975

Looks to me as if four screws are lurking underneath those grey/silver coloured caps?

Re-edit: Seems like the module should just slide out.

Yes. Remove caseback, remove gasket. Slide out module. Maybe very snug fit :)

thanks all for your fast reactions but all for nothing






i'm not a big led collector, but this one was one my radar for a while because of the quality and touch controle...it's a pity

Again, need I point out the hazards of buying a watch (especially an LED one) "hoping" that it will be in working condition, unless it is made explicitly clear by the seller that it is? It is all to easy to spend the price of a working watch, gambling that you will pick up a bargain.

Kasper,

I’m sorry to learn of your disappointment with this hard to find module.

It appears to me that the plastic carrier became fused and fixed in the case over time, and the previous owner used an inordinate amount of force to dislodge it.

The case and original band, however, look like they’ll clean up quite nicely. Hopefully one day you’ll come across a good module in a beat up case.

Regards,
Jason

Hi Kasper Unlucky friend.
Did you pay much for it? (bit of a cheeky question I know)
But I have been looking for a decent band for mine which has a none original
and if you like, let me know how much you want for it. (pm me)
Or.... I'm sure I have a none working module for one of these somewhere.
I can't remember if it showed any signs of life when I checked it.
I'll have a look for it if you like and send it to you.
You may have to give me some time with the holidays/xmas coming up.
If you get it going then all's good.
Let me know.

Hi Jagmad,

Well done friend, and your right I have been away for a while, work commitments I'm afraid.
Although it may have helped if you had just carried on with the original thread? LOL


Perhaps some nice person might point me in the direction of a band for mine.
Well done again.
