I have a big tic fossil watch. The flashing second is working properly, but the hand doesnt. It looks like slowing down. How can I fix this problem. Thank you

Question edited for clarity and toss in some CAPS.

Did you change it yourself?

I think you have a number missing from the model number, they are all 4 numbers as opposed to 3. If you purchased it on Amazon or eBay, it is a clone. Contact Fossil and book it in for a service.

Inside the case back on my JR-7855 is a label with the steps to take to change the batteries. The sticker says to short the pad marked "S1" with the pad marked "+". Keep doing it quickly, then check the watch face. You got it right when the seconds start to change on the face.



Here is a view at the inside of the watch. The two points you are looking for are highlighted in red.

Little battery operates the analog. big battery operates the digital second hand on the fossil big tic.

Use tweesters to touch both "+" and "s2" point can change that.

Since Fossil do not list their instructions under model numbers it is difficult to be sure that you rmodel still exists but if you go to their web site for instructions http://www.fossil.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ContentView?langId=10&storeId=32553&catalogId=20002&page=instructions

(click on this link to go there) and you will see some instructions for various big tic watches and you can select the one that suits yours.

The only one that I could find that had a single button above the winder used it to cahnge the colour. Pressing this button for 2 seconds will change the colour to "alternating" and the same again will produce a fixed colour. Perhaps this will make the change of display you need.

Often with watches, you need to use a pair of tweezers to short the battery case to the chassis ((often marked "ac"). This seems to be a re-set function, although I have never found an explanation for the need to do this.

If all else fails, look up their contact details and speak to them about your problem.

Make, model, all numbers, please.

This watch has 2 batteries so sounds like the main one has gone flat and the display one is still going, you just need to get the battery replaced.

mcdevito75 here, Fossil, a nice watch, but the backs of the watch can be tricky, try this, Look for and Tabs, or indentations on the back cover that line up to any of the same in the caseing itself, also look to see if there is a cutout in the cover for the stem (winder) of the watch, if so line up that cutout in the cover with the stem (winder) once you have the cover lined up with the case, grooves, indentations line up, the cutout for the stem lined up, place your watch crystal up and back of the watch down on a sturdy suface, Table, counter top, NOW with very even slow pressure with the palm of your hand press down equally on the crystal, the cover should snap on. Don"t over due the pressure to close the watchm, just nice even down ward pressure with the plam of your hand, Of course try to use your fingers first.

Get the analogue part battery replaced. Fossil uses two separate batteries - one for digital and another for analogue movement parts. Rate me plz.

The big tic has two batteries. The battery for the display may need to be changed and the circuit reset. You can then hold the display button down for 2.5 seconds to cycle through the display function.
