2003 deer pocket watch Al Agnew stopped working

if you know the movement you can search on how to do this, There normally is a lever or a push pin hold that needs to be pressed down to remove the stem.

I searched using http://www.google.com to see if anyone lists serial numbers or watch numbers. I could not locate a similar number.

Because it may be an old pocket watch, if so, I would suggest contacting a museum to see if they know what year it might be, even without a photograph.

Pocket Watch Billodes late 19th century

Makes the whole operation sound super impressive. Let me tell you about my attempt to buy a Rolex. I tried on several as I originally thought I wanted a certain size, metal, etc. and found that I liked something else altogether when I got into a store. Well guess what, the very watch I wanted to buy stopped working while I had it on! The saleswoman and the manager could not wind it and make it work. All that impressive attention to detail and the thing stops working before I even pay for it(and thank goodness I didn't). This was at an authorized dealer too.

Hi Josh, I do apologize for the inconvenience.Please try the below steps which should be helpful for you to remove the back of the watch and also replace the battery.

1. Flip over your pocket watch. Remove the back of your watch. The back of watches are either screwed on by four small Phillips head screws (unscrew them) or the watch has a press inserted back (slide a thin knife blade under the edge of the back of the watch and pry it off).
   (OR)Find the small groove on the back of the watch right above the hinge,place the tip of the screwdriver (the small kind used for the screws in glasses) into the groove and gently pry off the back of the watch.
   
2. Remove the circular watch battery out of the back of the watch.
3. Take the battery to any department store or watch store and purchase a new replacement battery.
4. Insert the new battery into the back of the watch.
5. Screw on or push on the back of the watch. Set the watch to the correct time.

The above should be of help for you to have the battery on the pocket watch replaced and have the watch working once again.Best wishes for your effort and thank you for your time and patience.

Hi, I just picked up this same watch from Ebay and it came with a standard diesel operating instruction book. I haven't read it yet, but if you want me to look anything up for you, please ask. As it turned out my watch need new batteries when it arrived, so the jeweller who fitted the batteries set all the functions for me.
Thanks,
Paul

Take your watch to your nearest watch shop and ask them to do it for you.

You can get into difficulty replacing batteries and it is not worth the risk for the small cost saving in doing it yourself.

Often with battery powered watches the word "Quartz" will be written on the dial. In the abscent of that you can look at the mechanism inside (typically by removing the case back).

Alternately (this may not be an absolute confirmation) with the winder in neutral position i.e. pressed all the way in, turn the crown (winding button) and if it spins freely it's probably quartz. Because unless it's broken most mechanical watches click as the watch is
wound up (except some automatics which cant be crown wound).

Plus if it's working and left unworn for a few days yet continues to run it's probably quartz.
Please rate this solution.

There are a few possible reasons why your watch is not working:

1. The battery is dead (sometimes even new watches have a dead or dying battery in them).
2. The plastic piece between the crown and the watch case was not removed (this protects the battery from wearing down until you receive the watch).
3. You bought a watch with a damaged movement or somehow damaged the movement through usage and it just will not work period so you may have to return it, exchange it, or have it repaired

These are the 3 reasons why your watch could not be working. The reason will fall into one of these 3 categories, so I hope this helps!

If you want to do this yourself, on the back of the pocket watch if you look at the seam going around the back, you will see a little notch. With a solid knife ( a pocket knife will suffice) take the edge of the knife and put it in that slot and pry up. The back should come right off. The battery probibly will be a 371 which will be covered a little with a piece of metal with a liitle hole in it. Take a tweezer ad GENTLY pull the metal piece away from the battery, and the battery shoul pop out a little. After you do that take the new battery and go backwards from how I told you to take it out. When putting the back back on just press with your hands and it should just snap back on. If you still have problem please let me know and I will be glad to assts you futher.Good luck!
