GMT Alarm Repair?

[oakleyconnoisseur]

Hey all. I just purchased a mint condition honed blue GMT with a non-working alarm. It was one of the only mint-condition honed blues out there so I chose to overlook the alarm and still purchase - I thought I’d never use it anyway.

I still have to get it delivered but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for where’s the best place to try and get it repaired. Also any details on the repair process would be welcome.

Welp... I am intrigued... had no idea any of the Oakley analog watches had an alarm... never had good luck with GMT's so can't say I have one to help you... Will be following the thread... @BradyGod1569 might you know more?

@Jorzaky has some informational videos on battery swaps and other stuff too. He seems like the best man for more information on this watch

Whats your 2 cents worth on this @zwc0442

I really have no idea to be honest. I don't tear movements apart usually to fix especially that one. Sorry.

GMT just gets no love... and for a reason.... LOL!

I like em I just don't know anything about fixing a movement.

I've had two come through here and they are such a cool style... the best looking of the GMT Judge series but both had bad movements and both ended up costing me money instead of making me money. I swore after the 2nd one and hearing about its awful movement I would never buy another... not even if it was $5

I’m not very well versed on Oakley watch repairs, but I’ll head to my watch guy when I receive my GMT & I’ll keep this thread updated. Thanks all.
