Very well.
What is your budget exactly?

I will report back to you Monday evening.

Cool, It's a bit difficult to put a price on it, I would be happy if it could be done for $60-70 plus shipping, i only say that as another one would only cost a little more than that.

any news?

post pics of it and i might have a crack at it

might just be something a bit loose inside it from the sounds of it

I can do this tomorrow, my phone macro is crap so I will get out my DSLR Cool

My buddy owns a watch repair shop in the building I work in.
What is exactly wrong with it down to the finest detail?

I'll ask him to see what the charge will be.

There was no report from manufacturer, so I will try and say as much detail as I can.

It stopped naturally as it was not moved in ages (stored) When I went to charge it by using oval movements to get it going, and I kept it going for some time as I know it takes a while to charge from dead, The second hand is just random, Both in speed and direction!
It never ticks more than 3 consecutive seconds in a row (with accurate spacing of 1 second in the right direction) you read right, Yes It can tick backwards, Not a twitch back starting and leaving from the same second, A whole tick backwards.

The other functions seam to work, i.e. the spindle moves the time back and forth as it's supposed to.

That about as much as I can say, I hope that makes sence Grin

Are you willing to send to the U.S. to get it fixed?

I am not sure to be honest, If I can break away from the sentimental side might be cheaper to get a new (or better) one.
But saying that, It would only be a few quid to post it, I need convincing Grin

Really strange question, I have no idea where it goes on this forum (probably does not belong on this forum) but worth a shot

I have a Lorus sports kenetic watch, It stopped working one day so I went to my local repair shop, They sent it to the repair center of Lorus (official) and they sent it back saying it's too old and they don't carry parts for this model any more Huh

It's not old, But it's not worth alot Prob £100 at most., It has sentimental value tho, If anyone know where I can send it to get fixed let me know.

Thanks
