Hello. I was changing nh36 movement from one case to another, and quickset day/date change stop working. On second position stem is moving freely without engaging day/date wheels. Tried with another stem, same thing. Opened the watch and realize that the problem is somewhere where is shown on picture. What can I do?

Tear down the keyless works, and see what's out of place. Reassemble correctly.

I don't know about the NH36 movement (I don't think it's one of them, but I've never pulled one out without tearing it all the way down), but some movements are designed such that the crown must be in some position or another before you remove it lest you find yourself in this exact situation.

Welcome to WRT forum.

If the picture was clea,r someone might see what part in the keyless has jumped out of place.

Have you googled for NH36 datasheet? 

Regs

Yes, but I'm not sure if it's the keyless because small wheels engage but they don't have enough power to change the date. Looks like something is out of place or it's broken.

 Whatever the fault is, a clear close up of the keyless helps spot it.

      Ok so there is barely any response happening . After this last attempt i think I'm just going to give up on it because very few seem genuinely interested or even bothered or worried what may happen in the future. ( if someone can set me straight I'd love to hear it ) I would think anyone into watches has heard of Roland Ranfft, how they grew to love and depend upon his site for detailed information. And not just that, he also had a view about Ebay and everyone that visited Roland's site knew exactly what he thought about Ebay, Roland's site also had a secondhand watch sale side to it.  If anyone here could have done anything to preserve his site and keep it exactly the way it was.........Would you have done something to make that happen ?  Its been pointed out to me but not in so many words  that I'm probably coming across as an insensitive p.rick, truly I'm sorry about that, i say it as it is but no malice is intended and yes clearly I'm putting my forum membership on the line here. I'll happily shut up about it now, I've done all i can.

      Thank you so much for posting this!  Although this movement is serviceable, there are no service notes that I've been able to find.  This is a great alternative!

      Greetings from another electronics designer & programmer!   I suggest you get a batch of similar scrap movements from ebay - I found batches of Seikos very cheaply, I got seven of one type for £11 (or 11 Euros possibly?). Those were ladies, 4206B I believe. There are also mens movements at a slightly higher price; eg. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134723051997 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235565276549 They are cheap enough so it does not matter what gets messed up or lost & you can probably still get one or two working movements from a batch, even if some part are damaged when you get them. (I've had quite a bit from the guy in Holland, he usually has a good range of movements).

      Please OH, we should all be proud of our collections what ever they are. If we can't show them off here then we can't show them anywhere. Our favourite gives us a story to tell of why we love it, that story also tells others something about ourselves. These are some of the things that make our forum and our community so amazing .

      I can take pictures when I am home of what it looks like.  They will be phone picture as I don't have a camera in my microscope yet but I should be able to take a few views to give a good idea of the damage.
