[QUOTE="thor447, post: 4314395, member: 24867"] As long as the pivot that the seconds hand mounts to didn't break off, and it is simply a matter of the hand popping off cleanly, it's a fairly simple fix. Just make sure to have the watch stopped by removing the battery, or pulling out the crown (if the movement has a 'hacking' feature) before resetting the seconds hand. Good magnification is critical, as that's a tiny pivot and easy to break if done incorrectly. With proper tools and magnification, it's pretty quick work. [/QUOTE]
