F(R)olex balance repair


Recommended Posts

I’ve been asked to fix a Folex Daytona Chronograph for a friend for sentimental reasons. I’ve found the issue is the missing pin on the balance pivot. Does anyone recognise the movement and advise where I can get a replacement- if they are available?? I’m UK basedbc14b4d9123e7dbbec2364822e881e1b.jpgeec408e217f5d21c520be91b2b1ce05f.jpg

Do they do a chronograph version? This one is supposed to be a Daytona.

Trying to bring it "closer to original"? Unfortunately mechanical chrono isn't an Asian specialty, nor economical.

I’m not even sure the chrono element is actually meant to work [emoji23]

I think that sentimental value is well preserved as long one has the piece. Your friend should accept it for what it is and be happy to have you trying to repair it somehow.
