A hand press will suffice Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’d normally use a flat punch in a staking set but only use finger pressure - it’s a taper fit and won’t go anywhere once it’s on; don’t confuse the force required to remove with that to refit it. With a 7 jewel movement there isn’t a jewel on the far end so no need to try and support that. Good luck and let us know how you get on!

Took a 122.11 from a scrap AS1188 and then found a endcap from an other movement that was 0,28 thick . Now it's working fine again. Problem before was probably the endcap to low so the jewel traveled around in the incabloc block. The spring could press it down

There is a little more info on this brand here, but a quick look in the usual places says spare parts will be very hard to get unless you can get a scrap movement, so ask lots of question and try not to break anything http://forums.watchuseek.com/f11/1960s-belforte-destro-custom-604277.html First you will need to remove the small plate (cock) on the back that supports the centre secods pinion. The large wheel that drives this is a press fit onto the shaft which drives it. (If you look closely you should see the small steel driving pin in the middle of the hub of this wheel). Make a careful note or take a photo of how the bronze spring plate fits against the centre seconds pinion. This is a friction spring which compensates for the backlash between the driving wheel and pinion to make sure the seconds hand doesn’t move backwards. To remove the large wheel then ideally you need one of these https://www.hswalsh.com/product/bergeon-30638-3-watch-wheel-removing-tool-hh53 however, you can also do this with a knife blade either side and levering up equally so as not to bend the shaft. The knife blades should be under the hub, not the rim of the wheel so you don’t bend the wheel. Just to make it more fun, the wheel can fly off suddenly if you use this method, so do it inside a plastic bag or cover with cling film first. From this point you can disassemble as normal.

I had a hairspring that was badly coned. You have to stretch it a LONG way before you have any effect on the shape. There's a risk it will break at the collet.

Normally you loosen the opposite pin (2 screws) and shift it against the barrel side (barrel on zero). Frank

Stosuję emalie Schauer ale wy w USA macie Thompsona. Tarcze z 2018 rok.

Finally watch ready with new mainspring and new rubber gasket. Worked perfect.
