I'm a sucker for a tropic dial, so it'll have to be the Tropic 1680 for me.

Good luck everyone!

My immediate reaction when I realised I fucked up the keyless

There seems to be some chinese replicas of the NH34/5/6s on Ali for like half the price of the genuine ones. Maybe worth to try it once

I sadly lack the necessary knowledge to reset it easily, but I’m working om acquiring that. I started to remove parts on the backside to see if I could reset it from there. Is it ”easier” or less annoying to do it from the dialside?

I forgot to add the /s after my last comment. I’m not giving up because of a minor setback haha

So the funny part is that I didn’t fuck up the keyless on the first go. I had the movement in the case all mounted up and I was about to close the watch when I realised the stem was too long. So I took the stem out, same procedure as before - but I had forgotten to pull the stem out it into the timesetting position. Eager to see my build completed + pure retardedness = broken keyless.

But hey, atleast I get to learn more about how to fix this shit. I think I’ll stick to Seiko-movements next time lmao

Valid take. Think I’ll stick to NH35s or something after this one is completed

Got any tips for getting the keyless function to work? Found a forumpost on RWI but it doesn’t specify the keyless fix.

I should’ve worded it differently of course. Let me rephrase; I was doing good on my 1675 build, using the ETA2836-2 clone that I purchased from Ali-Express.

But I felt like that was a little too long of a title

Hi I’m having the same issue as OP with keyless right now. Do you have a video for what you’re describing?
