Cheers mates!! Im working on a Lemania 3000 – Hand wound, small seconds. Had to change the balance spring. Beacuse it got so badley tangled when I was cleaning it in isopropanol due to some stickye issues. Think I have sorted that out, but after putting all parts togheter. It runs very slow like - 967 sec/d. When im looking at the stud that holds the spring (see photo), I think that this is not tight enough, and that cause not managing regulating the watch, Am I right? How tight should it be? How to tighten it?

Cheers mates!! Have just put togheter a Lemania 3000 – Hand wound, small seconds. And see that it gain 2 hour on a period on 12 hour. This looks like some canon pinion problem to me or?? Only probleme with this is that I did not take apart the canon pinion and the center wheel, I thought I just let i be in the movment when I cleaned it. I usually let the parts spinn in white spirit for ten minutes (turpentine substitute, petroleum spirits, solvent naphtha (petroleum) Then I spinn for 10 minutes in methylated spirit Then I finish with a 1 minut spinn in isopropyl alcohol After that I did lubricate on all the places needed to be exept the canon pinion... I hva looked at the balance spring, and it seems okay, its difficult to say. How to regulate this also? What is A and what is R on the balance wheel bridge? Pls help me when I still have some hair on my head !!!!
