So what you guys are saying is I need to hire a sound and boom guy? 😄 -
Actually all it would take is something to slip over the installation anvil to make it a concave support and it could then be used for both installation and removal.

20X is strong enough. will you show picture of hairspring and end stones. there usually are two little screws that hold end stone plate down, just drop the cock in coca-cola let soak for 20 to 40 hrs, you would need to dress a screwdriver blade for perfect fit in slot of the two little screws then lay the cock on a bench, press screw driver balde with a little force into the slot of screws and unscrew em, they opens with incredable ease when soaked in coke. Check, clean, peg if you can, lube and reinstall end stones, let us see a close up of jewels. End shake is your free axial play on balance staff, so use an oiler to lift balance wheel, you should see an axial free play, ideally .02mm is good. In case you see no end shake, you can shim up or gauge the cock to create some end shake. Check if impulse jewel is damaged or loose and it has to be way out of adjustmemt not to continue running. Keep us posted please.

This is my China made case tube extractor. The pin presses the case against a teflon support. In compression mode, it's less likely to distort the case. Is it possible to configure your tool to compress from the inside of the case? -
Afternoon all, I’ve just ordered a crystal press and a replacement crystal for a friends watch, the crystal was all cracked and fell to pieces when pressed from the inside. The gasket is still intact and seated in place and I plan to re-use it. However, am I best to leave the gasket in-situ and press the new crystal in to it, or do I remove the gasket and loosely seat in on the bezel along with the crystal then press them both in to place?. Thanks

Question
TrumpetMouf 3
So I'm in the midst of my first ground up build and am (unsurprisingly) having some issues. I swapped the stock white day/date wheels from my NH36 movements for black ones to better compliment my dial. I then tested the functionality before putting the dial on and all seemed to me working correctly, however once the dial was on I discovered an issue. The date wheel isn't quite lining up correctly. Here's the weird part: when I use the quick set function they line up fine. It's when I set them via turning the hands (which I was doing in order to determine 12am so I could install my hand set) that the date clicks in place a little high. Also if I have the date set and lined up correctly via the quick set function and pull the stem out to the hacking position the date wheel moves and misaligns. Any ideas of why and how to fix it? Thanks!
