Hey guys

This is a mido 1117 pc1 ( AKA   AS1675.)

I am still trying to get this mido to work and i think i know why it ain't winding. 

If you look at the picks the barrel bottom has teeth in it i presume to lock into teeth from below to wind the watch. As you can see i have not got that  piece it should lock into to turn it. So i mean in pics 1,2 3 there should be a cog that fits into that gap.

If you know what i am talking about. ( cos i am not sure i do) Please tell me what it is called to see if i can get one.

cheers

You are right, there should be matching gears on mainplate.

The mech is called detached manual wind, in which the winding gear is integrated inside the movement and lets you directly manual wind independent of the selfwinder mech.

I am not sure what the exact term for name of the missing part is,  I guess winding gear, it should be stated on relevent datasheet along with its reference number.

If you look in your tech sheet you will se the lower ratchet wheel should have that cog integrated in it.
It is part number 7.

I think if you look at the MIDO 1117PC1 at COUSINSUK you will find when you search for it you
will get the base movement is actually beeing an AS 1673.

So in the AS 1673 tech sheet you will find the parts you looking for like the Part 1417
which AS calls "Ratchet wheel with intermittent drive".
Just to check it is the one I took a look in MATSYS too. 

CaseCaliber    BestFit        FactoryNumber    Description
AS 1673        AUT/4290    1417/AS 1656    LOWER RATCHET WHEEL DISC 05/08/97 RC
AS 1673        AUT/4290    7/MIDO 1117P    LOWER RATCHET WHEEL DISC 05/08/97 RC
MID 1117P    AUT/4290    1417/AS 1656    LOWER RATCHET WHEEL DISC 05/08/97 RC 
MID 1117P    AUT/4290    7/MIDO 1117P    LOWER RATCHET WHEEL DISC 05/08/97 RC
MID 1117PC    AUT/4290    1417/AS 1656    LOWER RATCHET WHEEL DISC 05/08/97 RC
MID 1117PC    AUT/4290    7/MIDO 1117P    LOWER RATCHET WHEEL DISC 05/08/97 RC

So to have a complete winding system you need to ensure you have the parts 1417, 1423, 1480.

You find the tech sheet for the AS 1673 at COUSINE too.

    • Well, my fundamental stance is that I want to go in and out without leaving any trace other than a shining, perfectly running movement. So, no scratchings on the inside of the case back lid, no marred screws, no debris, no fingerprints, and so on. That is, my goal is to make it impossible for the FBI to track me down. As a professional, I suppose you might want to keep track of returning watches, but as @JohnR725 mentioned, we can keep detailed computer records without marking the watch at all. That may not be true for every watch, but luxury and COSC-certified movements do have unique numbers. John also says it’s best to leave no sign you were ever there, and I couldn't agree more. Now, suppose the Sea-Dweller I'm working on is one day scrapped, and you want to sell the case-back separately (perhaps the case was destroyed in a plane crash). Then the scribbles on the inside no longer reflect the current movement inside the case. Also, the engraving will likely halve the market value of the case back. It had been "sleeping" for about a week and a half. Yes, the "debris/old lubricant" theory is my hypothesis as well! It will be interesting to see what I find once I have time to start disassembling the movement.
    • I've repaired a few of these, having some success with stripping and cleaning the mechanism.  They are so cheap though, its hardly worth the effort in many cases.
    • Get well soon Old Hippy, torn muscles.,  not good
    • Id love to see how he has the output shaft mounted to this setup, as I have the same rotary stage and stepper in my build.
    • If you see at least one thread protruding, or even a half, then you may have a chance using this "tool", but don't squeeze hard. Lot's of patience, and if you notice any signs of loctite or other adhesives, then apply several drops of acetone on top of broken stem. Use heat (hair dryer) also. You should be able gradually turn it counterclockwise, just like i did on this broken Timex stem, which was glued with something like nail hardener. Then you can use an extender to save your broken stem. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/513DVvkfW5L.__AC_SX300_SY300_QL70_ML2_.jpg   You can also try cutting a small grove / slot on top of the broken stem to use 0.7mm flat screwdriver.   Depending on the Crown material and Stem material, you can try dissolving the stem.
