ETA 2472 calaender

[gary17]

Hey

Cannot get the calender on this eta 2472. I have checked the walk through on this forum and mine is exactly the same except mine wont move the calander ring.I have tried 2 different calender driving wheel and lever assembly and same out come the assembly  moves and pushes spring but calander ring dont move.Calander ring will move if i push it by hand. I have also changed the date jumper and jumper spring and it still wont move. Am i missing something obvious?

I have had it apart now 5 times and changing parts seems to make no difference.

The whole thing seems to work wheels turn excetera but ring calander wont.

cheers

How about the calander ring itself, could be warped or have worn/bent teeth.

Would calander ring move when you advance the hands by crown?
