Help! Timex Expedition stopped working after battery change

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a used Timex Expedition for around 6 €. It was working perfectly when it arrived, but since I didn't know how old the battery was, I decided to replace it. After I took the old battery out and put a new one in, the watch completely stopped. It’s not ticking at all. I even tried putting the original battery back in, but still nothing.

I’ve heard that some Timex movements need an AC Reset, but I’m having trouble identifying the correct reset contact on this specific movement.

Has anyone dealt with this before? Where exactly is the AC reset point, or is there any other way to get this watch working again?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
