ive always used the

RT28 Watch & Battery Tester

you can test watches for there batterys even without taking the batterys out

Cannot find any info on the rt28 but i assume it will only test if a watch is pulsing.

 

What if the watch mechanism has broken but the battery is fully charged,you still need

some way of checking.

 

Also a lot of my customers just buy the batteries to fit themselves and quite a lot ask

me to check their old battery is dead first,especially 3 volt lithium.

i must admit the rt28 will test the pulse of the watch or you can test 3v or 1.5 v batterys but it only gives a basic idea green red ,

but with the pulse tester if you have a sticky movement ,when the seconds hand is slightly moving back n forth ,a small drop of zippo fuel on movement ,than by poping watch on pulse tester it will give movement a jump start than start to wk again ,this works 99%of the time

basic service removing stem & crown re greese ,

new battery ,wipe over movement with rodicol to remove any greese or dirt after zippo fuel has evoprated ,

customers thinks ure the muts nuts ,
