Hello,

I would check Germanow-Simon catalog. There are two I saw  that might work : CMS 975, CMS 980. Check on page 70. You may be able to get help by contacting GS, but I see you live in Norway, so it might be difficult/expensive to get the crystal.

He is checking. Says it's a 23050 021 model. The 021 are from 1962 . Fingers crossed. 

Thanks mate, very happy for help.... how is life in Sweden?  Getting ready for Christmas??   :-)

24.56 mm ? esslinger has 25.4 inch square glass blanks for $4.99.close enough for government work. shaped glass watch crystal blanks sku 20154-2  one mm thick. But I am not sure if flat would work,

Nope he didn't have any left. Says the 021 crystal is hard to find. 

Haven't found one yet. Some say GS or Sternkreuz could have one.

Try Sternkreuz RX2552556. You'll have to sand it down a little, but it should fit....make sure you measure that original crystal again to confirm.

    • Murks, The rate and amplitude look OK, and the amplitude should improve once the oils you have used get a chance to move bed-in, also I notice that you are using default 52 degrees for the lift angle, if you get the real lift angle (assuming it's not actually 52) this will change your amplitude - maybe higher, maybe lower. I notice that the beat error is a little high, but not crazy high. At the risk of upsetting the purists, if the balance has an adjustment arm I would go ahead and try and get this <0.3 ms, but if it does not have an adjustable arm then I would probably leave well alone. Just my opinion.
    • Hi everyone on my timegrapher it showing this do a make anymore adjustment someone let me know ?    
    • Maybe I'm over simplifying this and I'm a little late to the discussion, but just by my looking at oil when I use it on a treated cap jewel  the oil stays in one nice bubble, but when I don't it spreads out to the edges of the jewel. I'm not sure (but could well be wrong) but the analogy of a waxed car and rain is accurate in this case, the wax is very hydrophobic and repels the water, however, the process epilame works by is a different physical process based upon cohesion/adhesion (oleophilic) not repulsion (oleophobic)  at least as far as I have read/observed. If one were to use a oleophobic substance equivalent to wax (hydrophobic) then one would need to create a donut shape to fence in the oil, however if one used such a strategy with a epilame which is oleophilic then the oil would sit on the ring of the donut and not in the 'donut hole', exactly where you don't want it. Even if the oil is smeared then the oleophilic epilame should pull it back to the center (see diagram below). Reference For interest the chemical in epilame is 2-(PERFLUOROHEXYL) ETHYL METHACRYLATE, CAS NO: 2144-53-8
    • Looks lint the teeth on the hour wheel aren't meshing with the teeth on the calendar intermediate wheel, maybe the hour wheel is sitting on top of this instead of meshing?        
    • If the oil drop was freely standing on an epilame treated cap jewel it could easily slide off if you knocked the watch hard but the balance pivot keeps it in place.
