Tissot ETA 988.333 Swiss Ana-Digi Quartz Movement Unboxing Review | Watch Repair Channel

The ETA caliber 988.333 is a quartz powered ani-digi movement with 7 jewels. It is Swiss made and is part of ETA’s Flatline family, however, this caliber is no longer listed in their current lineup. The most recent documentation related to this movement was from 2009.

DIGITAL DISPLAY FUNCTIONS:

Aside from the central analog display of the hours and minutes, the caliber 988.333 also has a black digital screen offering the following functionality:

Hours, minutes and seconds

Multi-lingual day (English, French, German, Spanish)

Date with perpetual calendar

Timer: Hours, minutes and seconds

Second time zone

Chronograph: Hours, minutes, seconds, 1/100 second,  ADD or SPLIT function

Alarm (hour and minute alarm)

There are two screens, the top displays the current mode and the bottom screen displays the numerical functions of that mode.

NO BACKLIGHT:

The 988.333 is not equipped with a blacklight for the digital LCD display, making it impossible to see without some kind of light source.

LOW BATTERY INDICATOR:

When the battery is low, this movement has an “end of energy” indicator which is presented via blinking of the digital display.

Interesting note: ETA used to refer to this EOL (end of life), but recently started referring to this feature as EOE (end of energy). This new term not only sounds better, it’s a more accurate way to describe the situation.

REPLACING THE HANDS:

ETA repair manuals state that a movement holder is necessary for fitting hands on the caliber 988.333 in order to support the lower pivot of the center wheel. The official movement holder that ETA recommends for this movement is part number 4080.35.244.
Note that the hands should be placed with the movement running (ie: battery installed).
For removal of the hands, the official documentation recommends Bergeon tool ref. 30.671-7.
