Hi, guys I had to order a new balance cock which was described as complete, which it is apart from the stud screw 🤬 Now I have a screw from the old cock but before I go and send it into orbit, I've tried to fit it already but without success, is there any tips I should know? I tried laying the cock flat and entering the crew sideways but this didn't work so maybe try it from a vertical position. Any suggestions would be appreciated. -

Those movements are submitted by anyone as far as i know, folk that helped to build the database for Ranfft. Those 4 pictures show 2 different variations or possibly families of caliber. Notice the two different bridges. But the set and wind are the same design, the spring is the click spring, these are common on oris movements. So that spring and screw on the last picture is missing as i think so is yours sorry. -
Hello! Could anyone help me figure out the part number for a blue sapphire crown for the Tank Francaise ref: W51002Q3. Perhaps even a place where I can find one, used or new. Thanks in advance! -
Fine work. I see what you were going for😀…. …sorry- early in the states. How dies the pull on the crown feel? This is not in my skill set yet- I always wonder if the new material will be too stiff… -
That looks like normal behavior to me. That movement only winds in one direction, not both, so when the rotor turns anti-clockwise it winds the main spring and so is fighting against the mainspring tension. As a result it will turn under its own weight but it won't free spin. When it turns clockwise though it has no resistance and so can spin freely.
