On an asian Unitas movement, the stem has come out of the watch. I can still put the stem back in and wind the watch, but I can't set the hands. Is this a hard fix.

You need to tighten the set screw down all the way for the watch to function properly:![]() If that doesn't work, most likely the set screw has backed out too far and you will need to disassemble and reassemble the keyless works: ![]() ![]()

It's only a pain if the keyless is messed. I am thinking if you attempt to reinstert the stem and gently twist ... tighten down the set screw all will be fine. Tinker with it, what the heck. A new movement is only 50 bucks or less ;) . That's how we learn :) .

I too have pulled out a crown on a Tissot Ballade Automatic, a few years ago. I managed to put the crown back in place but asked for a refund.:( Cheers, Simon
