Hi after my recent posts about dial refinishing , I started to wear the Orator watch with a Landeron 48 movement. I have a copy (from Cousins) of the Landeron 48 guide for watch repairers. Its not clear to me how to acheive the correct set up for the various eccentrics, which I was careful not to move, but in an old watch may not have been right anyway. I have attached some of the pictures to help.
The minute recording hand sometimes moves when the start button of the chrono is pressed. This maybe caused by the hammer (8219) touching the minute heart as the hammer retracts from the reset position. I can't see how to adjust the hammer to stop it touching the heart, which it does,there is a slight wear mark on the hammer.
The repair guide also refers to the chronograph runner being blocked, not clear what that means.
When the stop button is pressed should something lock the chronograph wheel, I notice it seems quite free when stopped?
Any advice would be appreciated.
