Hi I recently purchased an old Junghans Movement with dial and hands. I did some internet research and it turned out that this movement is older than me! K1 is stamped to the plate. K = 11th character = November, 1 stands for 1961 The first thing I did was demagnetizing the watch. The watch was fully wound after I got it and did not run. But that was an easy one: The hands are bent and block each other. After removing the hands, the movement started running immediately. Then I checked the movement with my brand new Weishi 1900 Timegrapher. Not that my old No. 1000 didn't work. But I love the higher resolution. Not really necessary. The upper picture is taken face down and below that face up. I have two questions: 1) How do I straighten the hands without ruining them? 2) What does the irregularity in the blue line of the second graph tell me? Thank you for your support! I will now start disassemble. Cheers Alexander
