Elgin 775 winding stem


Recommended Posts

Hello ,

I started to be interested one year ago with watch repairs following Mark lessons, and introduced myself few month ago when I joined this forum.

I recently picked up a Lord Elgin vintage watch with a 775 Elgin movement, nevertheless I need to change winding stem , but can’t find reference anywhere related to it. I found on another blog that Movement 775 replaced movement 750 - http://gjselgins.blogspot.com/2012/08/durabalance-lord-elgins.html

Do you know if a winding stem for an Elgin 750 would fit for a 775 ? if yes in that case I could probably get one here

Thank you for your help,

 

Georges

According the parts listing the found at the first link the stem does not interchange with the 750. According to the parts list which I attached its base model is 711. If you have your old stem you can measure and see how dimensions compare. Then the website that has stems does have the 711 which is where I got the dimensions from. Then unfortunately I don't have a 750 parts list.

Looks like from the third link the 750 winding arbor does not interchange with basically anything other than the752.
