Having changed the battery in my Accurist watch I can not get it to
reset. I have followed the instructions and followed the Accurist web
page, but with no luck. Is there a reset 'button' on the actual
movement like some watches?
Thanks

and:
Here's what the initialising instructions say:

"(1) After installing a battery, short (AR) and (+) of the battery twice.

(2) Set mode hand to "CHR" or "RACE" mode and pull (M) then set to ZERO."

the cheap end, it's still all citizen/miyota

a brand I haven't seen for years here, it was the cheap and of the
market, plated cases instead of stainless, or worst plastic cases, cheap
cheap cheap.

Seiko probably started it, first there was Seiko, then seiko bought
Pulsar the old American Kojak watch and made a cheaper range, they then
produced LaSale? think Lexus (in the end it's still a Toyota)

Q&Q is just a cheaper citizen

yes, and lately they made Grandeux line of watches which are not so cheap (however much cheaper then Citizen).
