Hi All

I put my watch repair hobby on hold for awhile, but I am back at it.

Apparently I am a little rusty. While installing first reduction wheel clip I fumble and everything when flying...Believe or not I found the clip but can't find the wheel.

Would anyone have an extra 7s26C First reduction wheel Part number 051 006. I can find Part number 0511 006 But I am pretty sure that is for A&B models.Thats what Seiko spec sheet is showing anyway.

Thanks

Anthony

Good for you!  I lost a teeny, tiny screw from the keyless work on a Wittnauer movement yesterday.  Spent thirty minutes on my hands and knees with the magnet.  Didn't find the screw, but I found a sliding pinion I didn't know I had lost.  Teeny, tiny screw from and Elgin movement fixed the Wittnauer.

I also found a different part than I was looking for, But I already purchased a spare so I put that in the lost column. I am a hard grader.

I have worked on a bunch of pocket watches and moved on to wrist watch movements I torn down a simple gruen I think it was 518ca and also a Seiko 7s26c.. I am looking for something a little more challenging that will not break the bank. Anyone have any suggestions. 

Thanks 

Anthony

      Rado rotor removal

      By Waggy · Posted

      Not sure, but just looking at it, it seems like the screw on the right may be a fake? The one on the left may not be a screw in the regular sense at all, rather a 2 position device, I think you need to point the slot towards either of the 2 dots and one will secure and one will open. Like I said this is just my best guess looking at the pictures.

      Hi! I am in the process of restoring a rado captain cook mkII. I want to remove the rotor, but I am not sure how to and need some help. As you can hopefully see on the photo there are 2 screws. The left one has two positions, the right one looks like a regular screw. I have tried turning the right one, but it does not give even after using more force than I would expect. Anyone know the function of the left screw with the two positions and how to remove the rotor? Thanks!!

      Welcome to the group Stirky. You can search for just about every subject in the craft here. Don't be afraid to ask if you can't find the answer that may have already been covered ( some ad nauseum LOL ). You don't have to buy Bergeon to get good quality. There are many decent mid-range tools available that will last you a lifetime. Cousins would be a good place to start . Cheers from across the pond ! Randy

      What are these Seitz B-Jewels?

      By Jon · Posted

      I picked up a similar amount of these jewels some years ago in a watch and clock fair. Every now and then they come in handy. This week I've got a rubbed in bombe jewel in the balance cock that is cracked and needs replacing. Very handy to have a vintage assortment of these type of jewels!
