Lubrication of stem and winding/sliding pinion?

[Blubarb]

Hi all

I am re-assembling a 1956 Movado Cal.157 and unsure if I should be using Grease (I have Molycote DX) or D5 on the stem and winding.sliding pinion. What is suggested for each part? 

Thanks in advance.

I usually use Moebius 9501 on winding stems and winding sliding pinion, but my notes also say Molycote DX can also be used so I would go with your Molycote.

Use just the tiniest amounts, mark has videos of youtube showing how to apply it.

Thanks, mate. I have notes that say D5 and notes that Grease as well and that's what's thrown me.  Mark says grease on the pinions but on the video I am watching he doesn't mention what he uses on staff. He applies what looks like the same blue grease he uses on the pinions.

The blue grease is Moebius 9501.

I put it on the tip of the winding stem that fits in the hole in the movement plate and a tiny dot on all 4 sides of the square that the pinion slides up and down on and 1 or 2 dots on the teeth of the sliding pinion and 1 dot in the slot that the yoke sits in.

Likewise a dot where the setting leaver locks in on the setting leaver spring.

I use D5 for the pivots of the yoke and setting lever
