As you can see the battery has practically exploded and caused some rather colourful damage. The Citizen Hisonic is actually a Bulova Accutron 218 movement sold under licence to Citizen back in the 70s ( I think) Watch and see if Mike is successful on restoring this watch back to its former glory.

[email protected] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About me: My name is Mike and I am a hobbyist watchmaker. I am completely self-taught in watch repair and restoration. My channel is all about my journey of hobbyist of watchmaking. I have watch repair tutorials, watch restorations and watch repair videos. Some of my content you can easily follow along to if you are working on the same watch movement. My main focus is to document my journey and inspire more people into this wonderful hobby and demonstrate that this hobby can be very rewarding. I do not profess to be a professional watchmaker and in my videos, I show all my mistakes, mishaps, highs and lows and keep everything as honest as possible. It is easy to edit all the mistakes out and make my videos look perfect but I believe that keeping it real reflects the true reality of this hobby. So, what are you waiting for? please check out my watch repair and restoration videos, get inspired and start your own watchmaking journey. #watchrepair #watchrestoration #watchmaking
