Is there any possibility I can send you a watch for repairs it’s damn near impossible to find someone to work on them where I live
@@Moistpotatoman I don’t take on work. Especially digital. It’s a hobby not an income for me.
Excellent job Michael, keep up the digital watch videos coming :)
Vintage Digital Watches thanks, you are the inspiration !
Another great video. I find using a "sticky ball" to remove the case back removes the risk of scratching it with the slip of a metal tool.
I have thought about those balls, however on many of the vintage watches I tinker with they are usually welded on so I loosen them with a Jaxa tool first. Still might get the ball, you can never have enough tools!
I actually have one of these. It was my first watch I had not counting a few children watches. It's from 1977 and if I remember right I got it from my parents when I turned 13. I just found it again a few months ago. Put a battery in it and it runs nicely. The bracelet was long gone but I maned to find an original Casio from the same time era on a flea market the other day. I've been wearing it for a few days and I feel like a kid again. ;)

Can you make a screen from Casio 95QS-42 It has burnt pixels. Can i find spare parts??
Very Very gooooood
Great video again Michael, absolutely love it when a new digital watch repair video get uploaded.
Keep up the awesome repair vids. Looking forward to the next one already.
Hi, great detailed video. What alcohol do you use ? Can I use methylated spirit for cleaning corrosion off the PCB ?
Oleg Karpun I use 99.% IPA alcohol
29:31 Great tutorial! I have a Casio 35qr-23 but I can’t find the battery model, I thinks that is the same that you used! Hope you can help me :)
Metal twizers are bad on conductive LCD display rubber contacts. And you haven't changed the button orings
But how to set it to normal time, not that am/pm stuff, it always took ages to get that out, and have the normal display instead of the weird yank settings..

Extraños los relojes por muy sencillos qué eran de tapa rosca
Hey Michael, very nicely done! How do you get this brushed finish of the steel case?
Michael Reitberger on this one I did not reapply the brushed finish I just lightly polished with polishing compound and a felt wheel on my machine.
To reproduce the brushed / ground finish is quite easy on a flat part of a case. On rounded parts is allot more challenging. I think in one of my videos I show it. For flat surfaces you need some P400 or finer abrasive paper often known as wet & dry paper. You then need a very flat surface for the paper I personally use a Price of steel I have. Lay the paper around the flat surface and place the case part you want to refinish flat to the paper and then slowly but steadily move the case in one direction. I find towards me better. Repeat the process of moving the case along the paper checking how it looks as you progress. Once satisfied it’s done.
I may soon do a video demonstrating this as your not the first to ask!
My Retro Watches Thank you for your precise answer! I‘d love to see such a video from you ... perhaps with some tricks for round surfaces too? :-)
I noticed that the seconds are displayed at the top in 10 sec increments. It appears CASIO was in a race to provide the user with seconds
Yes quite a few of these early Casio have the counting seconds like this. I have a big chunky Casiotron that shows them in a similar way.
I love your retro watch repairs I love watches especially vintage casio I have a cfx 200 scientific calculator watch I ordered from Ebay and watching your videos gives me a general idea how to repair it clean modules on digital watches
David Rivera thank your for your comment. I am really happy my videos are helping you guys out there. The aim is to inspire more people into trying a fix for themselves .
Good luck with yours.
Thank u
So digital CAN be tepated and serviced!!!

Great video thanks. I used this video for guidance on my first watch repair a casio gshock. A half blind old guy did it.😁 a 50 cent yard sale gshock now works perfect and looks new. I'll stick to viewing mechanical watch repairs...yes I'm chicken.😁 Thanks for your videos
Please show us how the light works!
Light is always on a separate circuit. Often with dead modules the light will still work.

Hi ! Nice video, I have a similar CASIO watch ( 35qr-23 ), my father gave me as a gift when I was 10 years old. I have it always in good shape and conditions and changed the battery a couple of times as needed. Later, after a couple of years while I was not using it , it runs out off battery so I try to replace it but at the watch store they told me that it is not running and probably de display is not working anymore. Is that possible or a tipical situation on this watchs ? Thanks and apreciatte your concerns about it.
... should be good.
The counter on the top screen is for seconds indicator.
I started my love of watches with digital in the 80s my grandfather taught me how to fix them. My prize watch played The Yellow Rose of Texas. I miss those cool digital watches that did all those things that at the time were simply amazing. I remember a guy from church showed me his new watch it had a thermometer on it, man I thought that was the coolest watch ever. It was a Casio I believe.
Oh Man,that is the BIGGEST crystal occilator I have EVER seen!
Do about digital watch
Mike, to repair the battery contact where the plating has come off, try using the conductive paint that is used to repair broken contacts on car rear demisters.
ro63rto hi Robbie. Already ahead of you on that one . I have a few tubes of conductive paint that I use to fix tracks with on the boards. I had planned to paint this contact at some point.
Thanks pal.
Hi, I am currently rebuilding one similar to this module making one out of two, they are a right PITA to set the time and date took me ages as well to figure it out but got there eventually. Enjoying your video's and plan to watch more of them. Keep up the great work.
Great instructional video Michael. I am just starting to look at a couple of old LCD watches so this provided me with a great inspiration. I was in electronics assembly for 20 years so should help.
Brilliant.!If I remember the boxes flashing under the days of the week were an alarm function for each day? Don't hold me to that but took me back eon, s. Happy schooldays! Cheers.

hola consulta como puedes limpiar un pantalla que tiene marcado los numeros por los años saludos
would you know what model of casio watch did john candt wear on planes,trains, and automobiles?
Sorry no I dont.
I usually use white wine vinegar for corrosion issues.
Hi, would you mind sharing the details of the new rubber seal that you added and where to get one? Thanks if you can help.
I would have no idea now but I just bought a selection of flat gaskets. Measure the diameter of the inside of the caseback to find one that fits. Gaskets are very cheap.
sorry lcd and slide can you wash?
I don’t.
Im kind of disappointed in casio leaving all that flux on their solder joints
Muy buen trabajo,felicitaciones.
I know you are not an advice centre but would you please tell me how to set a Longines 133 Alarm, I have tried Longines but unfortunately without luck. I bought the watch in 1979 and it has two pushes on the right and one in the middle of the left hand side.
Sorry I cant help as I don't own that watch. take a look on www.digitalwatchlibrary.com/ or join Adam's facebook group (link on his website) for sure someone in there can help you.
Thank you.
Nice work...nice retro watch too ❤

Чем чистите бензин?
IPA 99.9% alcohol
С какого года часы?
I don’t know . 1970s. I can’t date Casio.
At 32:40
I think the number 37, 38, 39 than 00 is the year. Early Casio only calculate the (pertual) calendars up until 2039.
alek thank you for this I was not aware how far into the future the IC would calculate.
@@MyRetroWatches well.. if you manage to keep It running until 2040 you can always use a different year to get exactly the same results.. to see which year try this : www.timeanddate.com/calendar/repeating.html?year=2014&country=27
A very enjoyable video, not boring at all, i had one of these watches in the 70s, "where do they go", would love to have it now
could you give me a brand for the optivisor , my eyes are failing too....Many thanks for posting....
Bill A thank you for your comment Bill it does help me. Sometimes I just think I am rambling on to myself! These early digitals are great as they were built with solid steel and the circuit are good too. They stand the testament to time!
As for my optivisor I don’t have a brand. I bought it from cousins uk my watch tool wholesaler. Nearest I can find to it is here.. you have a variety of lenses and an led light all very useful!
