Nixon 51 30 Watch - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
I just bought a Nixon
Sounds like the battery is most likely dead. The plastic spacer is there specifically there to keep that from happening prior to sale.

I stop using mi nixon
Your watch is an automatic type which means that it is a mechanical self winding watch powered by a spring. It is wound up by a weight that moves when you are walking about and this watch must be worn to keep it operating.
If not worn, these watches will stop in 2 -3 days because the spring has run down.
Some automatic watches can be wound using the crown wheel (winder) but if yours cannot be wound in this way, then swing it from side to side gently for a few minutes and the watch will wind up.
These watches thrive on being used.

I havent used my watch
if the watch is still keeping time but the stopwatch wont work then its probable that the watch has two modules inside,one for the normal hour and min hand and a module to run the stop watch.The cell on the stopwatch module will be flat and needs to be changed.Your watch is waterproof so take care who opens it and ask for it tom be re sealed or it wont be waterproof.
If you cant find a local watchmaker see
www.rolexrepairs.co.uk where there is a postal repair service within a day or so.

Size batteries for Nixon the unit ss
Tip & How-To about Watches
Changing Watch Batteries
Lots of posters ask "what is the battery in my (name of watch)" with a view to changing it yourself. This is a bad idea for many reasons. You don't have the tools or knowledge to remove a rotary screw on back, or the gasket sealant for a waterproof watch. Some fashion watches have 4 traditional screw and need professional grade jeweler screwdrivers. Also, there are about 20 batteries commonly used in watches, in various sizes and internal technology, Lithium Ion, Silver Oxide and Manganese Alkaline. If you buy them, you generally have to buy 10!
Don't sweat the details. Just take the watch to your local jeweler. They have all the batteries at hand and the tools to remove the back. It is done whilst you wait for $8 to $15!

Had battery changed on my Nixon and the second hand doesn’t move ?
The person who changed the battery has probably disturbed the hands and disconnected it. Take it back and make them fix it or have it fixed. Same thing happened to my Swiss-made Tissot. Spent $7 to have the battery changed, cost me $1,000 watch. They don't have the parts for my Tissot any more.
