Where does this part go on PUW 1561? Also, missing parts.

Hi All

I'm still a beginner.  See the red circled part below the link.  The parts sheet calls this "Foil for coupling pinion".  The wheel is the "coupling wheel"  The mainspring popped as I lifted the plate and I was unable to see how the foil is to be positioned.  Any ideas?

Parts 2572 "spring for date correction" and 2539 "guide lever for date correction" are missing.  Those are shown on a diagram in this 2018 thread.  BTW, I'd love to get all those sheets if anyone has them.  Would variants of this movement be made without those parts?  

Thanks!

Charlie

That's the 'foil for coupling pinion' associated with the 'coupling wheel'. I've done my best Picasso on your pic to try and indicate where it goes. Place the foil first as the wheel should go on top.

Movements from the same family in general have the same base parts ... just additional parts to deal with additional, or different, capabilities. You might find this document useful too:

    • The original 6139A manual is very clear in how to disassemble and how to assemble ...... step-by-step. However I haven't seen the 3169B manual, even in the Japanese version around, which clearly highlights the difference in center-wheel.   6139A Seiko Technical Guide.pdf 6139_A.pdf 6139A.pdf 6139b.pdf 6139B repair guide jp.pdf

    • Casio MDV106G-1AV Gold DURO200 I'm going on a long family vacation to Southeast Asia this summer and wanted a cheap but reliable beater in case I lose it, break it, or get robbed. Quartz movements aren't my thing, but I'm not dogmatic and this was a cheap option. A few years ago you could buy it for under $50, but since this particular model with the Marlin fish has been discontinued, you have to pay about double that, but I still thought it was acceptable. Sure, I could wear one of my cheap and very reliable Vostok Amphibian divers watches, but I have a personal relationship with them (having put a lot of work into them) and don't want to risk losing them. Strangely, I feel very excited. Maybe because I haven't bought a brand-new watch in over 10 years! 😀 The only downside is that this is the watch Bill Gates has been seen wearing, and I'm not exactly a fanboy of Bill Gates. Anyway, who cares!?
    • This post has some pictures that describe how to get the spring back into the setting without having to disassemble anything.  With patience, this approach works.  The advice that the spring will ‘float’ back in when positioned just right is spot on. If you try to push it so it flexes and pops back into the setting, it’ll probably just fly away, as you’ve already found.  Hope that helps, Mark
    • I recognize myself all too well. It takes a lot of experience and discipline to recognize when it's time to cancel and come back at a later time. Very well said! We should have a forum dedicated to this topic as it is critical to achieve success when working on watches. It's a lot more important than most other things related to watch repair. And yes, just a short break can make a world of difference!
