Hi guys,

Just wondering has any one else had problems with the winding stems for the landeron 48. I presume it goes were the pic shows it.

But its fine until you come to pull the crown and stem to move hands and  its not long enough to stay inside the tube  at other end.IMG_20201010_192031.thumb.jpg.d0f7240849c73c4708f749302d5b4742.jpg

Or i thought maybe it the setting lever but i have tried 2 of them there identical.

So take a look at the pics please and tell me were its wrong. .Please

This is the second winder i have had and both are the same so i presume i am at error.

No it is a 401 it even looks like it and the 2 i have are identical?

It is hard to get the wrong stem but just in case you want to compare yours to a correct one I post a picture of one.

The grove holding the setting lever pin has to be wide and deep enough.

Very often I found the front bushing damaged that accepts the pivot.
Either by mounting a wrong (too long) stem or deliberately damaged to accept such wrong stem.

Some damages and repair:

      Try putting everything back together and closing the back cover. I think one of the two springs has to contact the metal casing to ground the casing. So when you press the button, it will touch the contact on circuit board and close the circuit.

      Stem removal after fitting hands

      Yes, the seconds hand is the longest and goes almost to the edge of the dial. I can’t quite picture it how you do it on the rubber pad

      A don't think so it leaked or damaged it because the watch itself works it just the buttons ain't working not connecting with the circuit board have taken more pictures of where the buttons makes contact with the circuit board.

      Stem removal after fitting hands

      I think what peter means oh is once he has fitted the hands and  checked for  alignment if them and that they dont foul, how does he then hold the movement to remove the stem in order to case up. The dial cannot be laid on a cushion or in a movement holder as the hands will get damaged. This can be quite tricky for a beginner, what i do is  to stand the movement on edge on a rubber pad so it doesn't slip. Hold the top edge with one finger then my dominant hand uses 3 fingers to press the stem release and flick out the stem. See below peter, leave off the second hand as this is the longest and gets caught the most, then fit it once the stem is out. Alternatively place the movement in one of the cup style holders, i imagine this is what they are designed for. They only touch the very edge of the dial.

      Yes I understand that. What I’m asking is, after the hands have been fitted, it’s been checked that the hands do not touch etc. then I need to remove the stem to fit the movement in the case. I have the push type, I need to turn it upside down and push the setting lever post and pull the stem out. But of course the dial and hands are in place and I have a glossy dial with lume dots and I do not want to cause any damage while it’s upside down pushing on the post of the setting lever.
