Lubricants Avail - No Charge!

Recommended Posts

All-

I've been inactive for a while, but starting up again. I just replaced some of my expired and expiring lubricants. I also replaced my 9010, 9415 and HP-1300 with the fluorescent 
versions.

So....I have what are essentially full bottles of the following:

Moebius 9415 - expires 12/2021
Moebius HP-1300 - expires 10/2021
Moebius 9010 - expires 12/2020
Moebius 8217 - expired 11/2019
Moebius 8200 - expired 08/2019
Moebius D-5 - expired 09/2019

I am happy to ship any or all of the above to someone that will be able to put them to use. I'm sure others here will be able to offer opinions as to whether or not the expired
lubricants can/should be used. Please be considerate and only ask for what you are truly in need of. This stuff is very expensive, so I am hoping it will not go to waste.

I am happy to ship within the US for free. I can do overseas if you can PayPal me the cost of shipping.

Hi  JJM  tell her the dog ate it.    A very generous offer SStakoff,  My theory on oils is the same as food the date is a guide if it tastes ok smells ok eat it and at 76 and still going (just):D

Hi there watchweasol I bet your amplitude has never been better :sleep:

Will be fun to hear you opinion on the fluorescent lube when you tested it . 

Did the Keyless assembly today, so I used the fluorescent HP-1300. Works great! Shows up under a black light as bright green - very easy to see where it is, and where it isn't. So - I'm a fan!   Will let you know how the 9010 looks when in jewels later.

The fluorescent doesn't show well under camera - so the next video won't do it justice :(

I just bought a bottle of 9010 . Should last me a year or more. So next time maybe. Need some 1300 soon. So maybe test that . What kind of light source do you use. Is there a special ultra expensive Bergeon lamp.

Ha! I’m sure you can find an overpriced Bergeon if you try! I opted for the $12 version.

This worked fine.

    • You don't have to use his special tester. Any good multimeter would work.
    • Yes, it looks like GT Revue 30. Doctor, You can not replace escape wheel by the dimensions You listed. One needs to know much more things like number of leaves of the pinion and it's diameter, the position in high of the table and the pinion, the hight between the pivots, the exact pivots diameter... And then, even if suitable wheel is found, one will need to know how to adjust the pallets position correctly. Restoring antique movements is something different than replacing parts. In older movements parts are not interchangeable, this means spare parts do not exist. Here the case is different, but still escapement adjustment will be needed if a wheel from a donor is found. So may be it will be easier to restore the donor for You...Restoring antique movements usually means making of the parts needed and this requires knowlage and working on lathes skill. In this case repivoting of the wheel is the natural solution, but there is a long way that one must walk untill getting ready for such work.
    • I was looking at Essence of Renata, a chemical used a lot for cleaning hairsprings: "Specially prepared solution for degreasing watch and instrument components. Indispensable for degreasing hairsprings." Looking at the MSDS you can see this is just pure n-Heptane, so could be an option for those who don't want to use the chlorocarbons or hexane?     HF6013 - Horological Essence COSHH Safety Data Sheet Horological Essence_0.pdf
