What is differences between bergeon oilers?


HonestRepair

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm using bergeon oiler 30102 for lubricating. I feel it couldn't grip very tiny drop of moebius 9415 for pallet jewels.

So, I searching alternative oiler for it, and found 2 more bergeon made oilers.

These are the Bergeon 5423 and 7013. There is not detail description about them. 

Please tell me about what is differences and what is best choice for my problem.

Thank you!

I'm attaching PDFs of each of the numbers you have. But there is a minor problem with the number in that each number refers to a whole bunch a Oilers of different sizes.

Then I'm attaching an image of the 7013 which comes in several sizes. his is listed as their precision oiler because the shape is very defined and will supposedly only pick up a very exacting quantity of oil.

While the problems with looking at the various Oilers and I have a link that shows that is there also made by a variety of other companies. Then the shape at the end can be different. Personally I find I like the flat end of verses the multi-sited ends that some of them have. I don't even know who makes my favorite oiler other than it just says made in Switzerland I know what I found a style I liked I purchased several of them so I wouldn't have to worry about it.

Then conveniently am not finding it but I've seen articles out there of people that will modify the oiler themselves. Another result flattened them's the more flat bill conceivably shapes them and the sums shape that they like or they perceive is somehow better. So if you don't like one try purchasing something else.

  • I have been using the Bergeon oiler you are using for a number of years with no issues apart from (I don’t know how) I damaged the tip of my finest once. The angle you approach with the oiler tip gives various amounts. 

I know that the angle and speed of pull out an oiler from oil is critical factor for how much oil get. But, from a while ago, I felt it was little bit difficult to control it. The oiler gripped very much or nothing ?

It was very stressful. Maybe I need more plactice and training, but I want to know what is different more expensive oiler.

Thanks for your stuff! Maybe your Switzerland oiler is Horotec or AF.

The 7013 have pipe niddle shape like as little bit modified syringe's. And 5423 and 30102 have same flat tip like spoon. If so, can I understand 7013 give more accuracy quantity of oil by its shape?

I use Bergeon’s “ergonomic oilers” most of the time and always when oiling pallet stones. Silly expensive, as most Bergeon tools, but still worth their price.

Thanks! Is the ergonomic oilers mean bergeon 7013 it have color rings its body?

You started lubricating with it? Or have you ever use flat type oiler? Can you share your expirence more detail? Thank you!

May seem daft but have you tried giving your oilers a thorough clean.  if they have been in contact with anything containing silicone oil (seal grease etc), PTFE (some oils), or moly/graphite etc, then these tend to 'plate' onto the oiler and prevent proper oil stiction. May have to be mechanically cleaned (ie with cloth or very fine paper) then finished in an U/S cleaner.

OK! Thanks. I will try it!

No, I started with normal oilers. This A*F set show in the picture here (no longer for sale it seems).

I found it extremely difficult to oil jewel holes with any precision, not to mention pallet stones, using ordinary oilers and an eye glass. So, I got myself the Bergeon ergonomic oiler set, an inexpensive Chinese stereo microscope, and after that oiling jewels holes and pallet stones has been become a lot easier and very precise. Quite an investment at the time not knowing if my interest would take off, but it did and I now consider these tools some of my most important alongside good tweezers and screwdrivers.

Thank you for sharing your nice experience about how and why choose this tool. It's very helpful for me and others. Thanks again.

    • Getting back to the issue which is us guys repairing or just enjoying horological exploits. The big worry now is how sound is Cousins as company going forward. The of cost if this 8 year legal battle will be astronomical. Cut backs will happen noticed already how the Cousins catalogue is half its size this year. The main supplier going out of business will hit the UK horological community in a big way.    On the Brexit issue it was about a sovereign country being able to make its own laws and trade with any country in the world. I cannot see what was wrong with this. For those who wish to re join the cost would be very high indeed.
    • Yes, it's the same (old) song and it's getting worse & worse;  
    • 🤔 leaving the EU meant that UK was no longer part of the convention and have already been turned down an independent reapplication. I'm pretty sure courts have to be held in Switzerland in this case. There will be a lot more watches stashed away in draws  tbh, folk wont be able to afford to maintain them. Cheap watches will be bought and top end watches by folk with plenty of cash that can pay for service and repair. The expensive once in a lifetime gifts and everything else inbetween will be at the forgotton when they stop working. I know i was being a numpty, get used to it 😄 Anybody that knows will boycott them, but besides repairers who will know. Nope will never buy one, i made that decision as soon as i learnt about this. 
    • although not in this case.  It was the Lugano Convention and its deficiencies that allowed a Swiss court decision in the first place.  This isnt really a Brexit issue at all.  A decision that affects both the EU and the UK should never have been heard in Switzerland. I bet the authorised service centres in the UK are pretty pleased.  It's a massive shame, though; I believe watch owners should be able to choose to have their watch serviced by whoever they trust.
    • Hi guys I think that old hippy is correct, it opens the gates for china to manufacture aftermarket spare parts. considering that they already do work on behalf of the Swiss I guess this decision gives the a little more legitimacy to tool up and I am sure they will take advantage of the situation either with or without the blessing of the Swiss watch industry  Having read about the protectionist machinations of the Swiss in the history of Europe they were the only ones to get fat at everybody else’s expense. I think the outcome could have been guessed at but ,  fair play to Cousins UK for standing up to them.  Now the question,  will everybody boycott Swiss watches and Swatch, no way they will still fill their coffers.  Me I stick with the Japanese once renowned for cheap shitty watches who came good through industrial effort and don’t for get the Russians that most dismiss as low grade crap. Wouldn’t buy a swatch product ever how about you all.? a
