I don't have a television, I haven't had one for about 12 years. 

I rarely watch TV these days (but I still pay the license). Any BBC content I watch is typically online.

There are some very interesting old vintage watch adverts and promotional material on line of course, but I don't think they count.

      The small pinion that is on wheel 3 is a normal gear pinion. Did clockmakers mix the two types of pinion in the one movement?

      Bad design or worst design?

      By mbwatch · Posted

      No real question here, I managed to clean and reinstall this straight. But I just thought I would share this silly design for a balance cap jewel on an old Junghans pocket watch caliber J32. The screw is in the center, the jewel eccentric; the opposite design from every other cap jewel I have ever seen. But it has no steady pins beneath so tightening the screw means the cap jewel wants to rotate away from the hole jewel. Without an automatic oiler, this took about 6 tries to oil and screw down the cap without spinning it away. A tiny bit of Rodico didn't really help. Happily they don't make them like this anymore.

      Thanks for your most appreciated assessment with this. I will purchase a new movement.

      Sorry I am confused by step 4. Which screw? There is the balance cock screw. I don’t think that is what you are talking about. The only other screw I see is on the side of the swan neck regulator. I do t think that is the one you are talking about either Well I managed to make it worse again but I could take pictures.  I had put the balance cock partially in place with one locator pin in. I wanted to remove it and I know I should use my screwdriver in the slot to move it off the pin but I didn’t l pulled wit my tweezers and it stuck then gave suddenly and was thrown a few inches away and of course the hairspring got tangled (a coil was above the cock) and untangling it from the cock deformed it.    I am going to try to put it back in shape and I will likely post more pictures after shortly. I’ll wait for feedback before reattaching it to the cock I am sorry I think I’ll give up. I was trying to remove the tangle. I had previously succeeded but now I just made more of a mess with this new tangle.  Lf you see my spring it is now just a knot.  Let’s keep a positive attitude. The movement was already broken. It was working but couldn’t be used. So what if it can’t run anymore… I went on and reinstalled the mainspring in the barrel by hand and managed to put the arbor back in.  Now I need to close the thing!
