Victorinox Swiss Army plain wristwatch

Victorinox Swiss Army plain wristwatchThis is my other Swiss Army watch, a Victorinox (the others are Wengers). I don't remember how I got it; it has my employer's logo on the back. I've got the box for it, so it may have been my 5th anniversary service award.

Doesn't work. Or actually it works in fits and starts. I'm not sure what the problem is. My father had tried to work on it and he said there was a break in the electrical circuit that was intermittant. He'd tried to solder it but it was too delicate. I just put a fresh battery in it and it's been working in fits and starts. Unlikely I'll ever try to get it fixed, but if I could find an ugly one as a movement donor, I'd go for it.
