Orient 46D40 part needed

Hi, all. Do any of you have or know where I can obtain a sliding pinion part #47 for an Orient 46D40 movement? I have looked all over the net and there doesn’t seem to be any movements or parts for this one for sale. This is a 21j auto multi year calendar model. I bought a brand new one several years back and was never able to set the hands on it and am just now getting around to tearing it down. The sliding pinion seems to be stripped internally, as the stem just turns freely within it when in the hand setting position and the stem looks fine. Steve

You should take it apart. Maybe it's not the clutch wheel. Could be something else? Something easy to fix. The movement looks a lot like a Seiko. So maybe a part from a Seiko could fit? But don't know which.

    • 1947 NOS Ambassador 'C'. Actually, the case came without the movement so the movement isn't NOS, but she sure is pretty.
    • Hi attached is the AS 20XX. Service sheet although there is no 2063 mentioned it may be of some use to you AS_AS 2060,1,2,6,4,6.pdf
    • one of the problems we have is visible versus invisible. For instance millennium disulfide another high pressure lubricant black in color. I was told by somebody worked for the Boeing company that they had a piston like device somewhere that has eight call it around it to grab it so it has to slide and in the collet has to grab. But if somebody puts that type of dry grease on where grease with that in it it embeds itself basically in the metal and they have to throw the whole part away they get use it all. So I suspect on all the dry powdery lubricants that they will go into all the basically microscopic cracks and crannies of the metaland that's where it is visually at least until you scrub it off your visually going to see it which is good because you want your lubrication the stay word is. But I'm sure it doesn't last forever on the metal it's just a really nice lubrication  
    • Thanks for the info. I can't seem to find tech sheets for those either.  I'll muddle my way though 🙂
    • Ohh spooky I have just aquired the same one mike, but mine has a drill bit inside it.
