PRS 3

[James K]

I have two PRS 3's in steel finish (working perfectly) and PVD. The PVD one is as dead as can be, after a battery change a couple of years ago the second hand just ticked backwards and forwards on the same second marker before finally dying completely.

Would it be difficult to have a new movement fitted? what is the movement type?

Both watches are really good quality but being quartz wasted on me so someday I'll make them a package with some other quartz watches Marathon Navigator etc and see what I can swap them for.

In the mean time any ideas about the movement replacement?

Thanks

I'm gagging for the pvd one , dead or alive. I sold mine to a donut magnate and avid tf fan in southern California and have regretted it ever since.

Are you in the UK?

When the time comes I will be looking to swap or PX both PRS3's, a steel Marathon Navigator, a PVD Rotary diver (unusual history) for something.

Hello Dave. James, might your stainless PRS-3 have an orange dial? If so, I'm dying to find one!

I knew this thread would wake you up roger!:))

No Orange dial, its the older Quartz model marked Broadarrow rather than the later Precista ones. And whilst cosmetically in good condition it's as dead as a dead watch can be. Hence the question about replacing the movement.

Get it fitted and hey presto ;)

(I'm pretty sure that's the right movement, best double check for yourself)
