The hands are not setting themselves.

Just got new battery while in Edinburgh, but moved to Skye, and the hands are not setting themselves.
Am I now out of range, and if so, what can I do?

The controlling radio signal for the National Physical Laboratory's clock is transmitted on the MSF 60kHz signal via the transmitter at Rugby, operated by British Telecom International. This should have a range of some 1,500 km or 937.5 miles. All of the British Isles are of course within this radius.
The National Physical Laboratory's role as keeper of the national time standards is to ensure that the UK time-scale agrees with Co-ordinated Universal Time (UTC) to the highest levels of accuracy and to make that time available across the UK. As an example, the MSF (MSF being the three-letter call sign to identify the source of the signal) radio broadcast provides the time signal for, electronic share trading, the clocks at most railway stations and for BT's speaking clock.

Why did hands come off during watch battery replacement?

If the hands of your watch have come off after replacing the battery, it could be due to a few different issues. Here are some possible causes and solutions:
  1. Improper installation: If the hands were not properly aligned when the battery was replaced, it could cause them to come off when the watch is turned face-up. Make sure that the hands are properly aligned and securely fastened to the watch movement before reassembling the watch.
  2. Loose or damaged hands: If the hands were loose or damaged before the battery replacement, they may have come off when the watch was turned face-up. Check the hands for any damage or wear and if necessary, replace them with new hands.
  3. Damaged watch movement: If the watch movement was damaged during the battery replacement process, it could cause the hands to come off when the watch is turned face-up. Have the watch movement inspected by a professional watch repair technician.
  4. Incorrect battery size: If the incorrect battery size was used to replace the old battery, it could cause the hands to come off when the watch is turned face-up. Make sure you are using the correct battery size and type for your watch.
  5. Incorrectly set the hands: During the battery replacement, if the hands were moved or set incorrectly, it could cause them to come off when the watch is turned face-up. Double check that the hands are set to the correct time and position.

The second hand on my Invicta 0295 (this is not a chronograph watch) appears to be trying to move(stutters/moves slightly)but it is stuck in the same position in the 12:02 range and does not advance.

It could be a couple of things, the second hand is not seated properly and is rubbing. May need a cleaning, or fresh battery. Unless you have taken a watch apart I would bring it to a watch repair or send it directly to Invicta USA they will give you an estimate. Should not be expensive

If you suspect the battery try some spare batteries double checking with several known good to brand new one tests to cover your bases for consistency. It is a method of trial and error eliminating any possibility of a battery problem.

Sometimes there are power drain issues where cheep batteries even new can't handle. Trial and error illumination of a power drain issue checking with high power drain capable batteries. Information can sometimes be found in the manual in the specification.

From there you have the insight information it is not the battery in your further investigations describing the problem to a dealer or manufacture.

Other options of investigation include if you have the owners manual to check if there is any special settings to instigate you may need to know about dealers and the manufacture should know as well.

The date and time are changing by themselves

I had the problem with locking on chrono function. Then I decide to replace battery, after replacement watches become crazy, hands were moving all the time, it was impossible to stop it. I remove the battery and leave watches on the table for 5-6 days, then install the battery again. No problem any more, all functions are available. May be you have the same kind of problem. Good luck!

When I pull out the crown, I can move the hands but the second hand does not stop. How do I get the second hand to stop so that I can set the time to a time signal?

Most of the watches in their range have instructions on the details page.

I suggest you go to "http://www.bulova.com/", choose your area, click on one of the pictures to move onto the next page, then do a search on their range of watches.

When you find yours, click on its' picture and details of the watch will appear. You will find instructions there.

I have a police chronograph watch about a year old if that and the chronograph dials have reset themselves at random points does anyone know why and if so is there a fix? many thanks david

hi,
all you need to do is pull the centre bezel out (to where you adjust the time) and by pressing the top button the chronograph needle will move round. Once it is the correct place simply push the centre bezel back in.

Hope this helps.

It's broken. Mine is doing the same thing. Others online have experienced the same defect. I bought mine from woot.com in July and just gave it to my son for Christmas. Check the Seiko website and send it in for repair. It has a 3 yr warranty.
