Hi, For my first project I have a Rone watch with a 1057 movement. It runs face down but stops when turned face up. I suspect (and hope) it just needs the balance jewel lubricating. However, it is held in place by a star shaped holder that I cannot find any information on how to remove (picture attached). Can anyone ofcer any help). Thanks Rog

Hello folks, I am practising on a Gruen 522CD. I installed the train wheels and escapement to make sure the watch is running fine. I use my microscope to inspect the jewels and pivots because I can't see them with a 20X loupe. I found that the balance pivot won't go into unless I force the balance cock down with the cock screwed in. Maybe I need to bent the cock down? That seems pretty barbaric. Below you can see the pivot barely moving into the jewel. The bottom pivot does the same thing.
