Hey everyone, my name is Hubert Koenning, I'm from Germany. My English is bad, but I hope you can understand me and your Language corrections are welcome. I know a little bit about mechanical watches, round about 30 watches are my own. Some of these watches have I repaired. Most of them are from Germany (Pforzheim) especially from Fa. Epple ( EPPO) and some from the Switzerland. My last Service was a Junghans (ZentRa) Pocket watch with the caliber 42/1.

 

greetings

Aloha Hubert , and Welcome to this Forum .

I am sure you will find the members friendly and willing to share their experience and varied collection of timepieces . 

Your Eppo watch is a piece of eye candy and I found oldhippy's description of the regulator arm to be an interesting fact . Definitely something that is new to me .

      You don't have to use his special tester. Any good multimeter would work.

      Pocket watch escape wh

      By nevenbekriev · Posted

      Yes, it looks like GT Revue 30. Doctor, You can not replace escape wheel by the dimensions You listed. One needs to know much more things like number of leaves of the pinion and it's diameter, the position in high of the table and the pinion, the hight between the pivots, the exact pivots diameter... And then, even if suitable wheel is found, one will need to know how to adjust the pallets position correctly. Restoring antique movements is something different than replacing parts. In older movements parts are not interchangeable, this means spare parts do not exist. Here the case is different, but still escapement adjustment will be needed if a wheel from a donor is found. So may be it will be easier to restore the donor for You...Restoring antique movements usually means making of the parts needed and this requires knowlage and working on lathes skill. In this case repivoting of the wheel is the natural solution, but there is a long way that one must walk untill getting ready for such work.

      How to store one dip

      By Waggy · Posted

      I was looking at Essence of Renata, a chemical used a lot for cleaning hairsprings: "Specially prepared solution for degreasing watch and instrument components. Indispensable for degreasing hairsprings." Looking at the MSDS you can see this is just pure n-Heptane, so could be an option for those who don't want to use the chlorocarbons or hexane?     HF6013 - Horological Essence COSHH Safety Data Sheet Horological Essence_0.pdf
