Awesome wall piece ! I was toying on that but thought nah...enough Pams in the house !! What would a custom strap run at?? 160mm ?? :lol:

Can't you open it up from the back and push the cannon pin back in?? Whack a battery in and see if it works?? Good luck !

This is the only way to wear this watch.................And yes that should be an easy fix. Looks like it would just push back in. Proof that even the gens have problems

I had a clock similar, but unbranded. The face is held in, as I recall by the spring wires on the back. If you push those in the face will remove out the back. Does that make sense? I bought mine to afix a cavalino on the face but the clock stopped working so I tossed it. I knew there was a reason I should have kept it. LOL

My 2 cents.

Turn it over on a towel. Remove the silver springs from the back and gently lift out the dial and the movement assembly.

Gently turn it over trying not to move the loose hand or have it scrape against the dial.

You will have to adjust the other hand with the wheel on the movement to 12:00. Then position the loose hand so that it will align correctly at 12:00.

It looks like the loose hand press-fits up under the top of the canon pin. Pull up on the loose hand near the canon pin until it is flush with the top of the canon pin.

If it tight enough to stay in place, reassemble.

This is just a suggestion. If you are uncomfortable with any of this you may want a professional to do the work. It should be an easy fix for any watchmaker.
