Monday, time for a change.
Feeling out of sorts this morning with a couple of appointments for dental work later on in the week and this one always makes me smile.

Does your F300 have a discernible hum? I suspect one/more of the coils in mine must be going. I don't know anything about quartz watches but when I put a fresh battery in the one I could open, it works but up close you can hear it humming.

Couple things. These Omega F300 models are NOT quartz! They are transistorized electro-mechanical. If memory serves me correctly, quartz watches appeared on the scene circa the late 1960s. The F300 has a tuning fork which is caused to vibrate at 300 vibrations per second. That is the humming you are hearing. The tuning fork utilizes an index jewel and a pawl jewel, each on the end of a tiny spring to drive the gears that cause the watch to run. If your watch hums but the hands don’t reflect the correct time, the watch needs servicing.

Let's keep this a secret between us , I've put a 16710 coke insert on my 16700 & I like it . And as we all know, the 16700 was never fitted with a coke bezel .
