Horotec Turbo Tester for Quartz Watch Movements

Horotec Turbo Tester for Quartz Watch Movements The Horotec Turbo Tester is an essential professional tool designed for testing the mechanical aspects of quartz analog watch movements. This innovative device helps determine if a quartz watch issue stems from the battery or internal movement components. It serves as a valuable complement to traditional battery testers, offering insights into the inner workings of a quartz movement. Using magnetic impulsion, the Turbo Tester drives the train wheels, allowing watchmakers and repair technicians to assess whether the problem can be resolved by simply replacing the battery or if there are other mechanical issues at play. This tool is particularly beneficial when a new battery has been installed, but the watch hands remain stationary. Common problems, such as stuck train wheels due to dust or dried lubricant, can be addressed effectively with the Turbo Tester. Key Features - Genuine Horotec Turbo Tester - Designed specifically for quartz analog watch movements - Tests the mechanical functionality of quartz movements - Effective companion to standard watch battery testers - Helps identify battery-related or movement-related issues - Utilizes magnetic impulsion to drive train wheels - Can jump-start stuck train wheels - Useful when hands do not move after battery replacement - Assists in identifying movement problems if hands do not move smoothly - Ideal for watchmakers, jewellers, repair technicians, collectors, and hobbyists - Powered by 1 x 9V battery (not included) How to Use To use the Turbo Tester, place the watch face up on the device so the hands can be easily observed during testing. Adjust the watch's position until the magnetic pulse is directed at the appropriate point inside the movement. Once correctly positioned, the tester will drive the train wheels, causing the watch hands to move rapidly. For optimal results, allow the tester to operate for about two minutes. If the hands move smoothly, the train wheels may have been stuck, and normal operation can resume after removal if the battery is functional. If the hands do not move smoothly or stop again, further issues with the movement may exist.
