Omega 1861 noise when shake


Recommended Posts

The cap that goes over the movement with the button in the center is supposed to make contact with the caseback, holding the movement and its ring securely once the back is tightened. It could be that it got pressed too far in the past, or is from a different model (?), and isn't contacting the back correctly. Obviously if the back isn't tightened securely it could be out of contact as well.

The button can be punched in or out, just put the cap on top of a nut, say 1.5 cm inner diameter and punch the mid section of it out, it will self adjust as you tighten the back plate.
