Help needed, rotary sport and possible Rolex face


Recommended Posts

Hi

I purchased a job lot of watch pieces as I needed donor parts for a pocket watch of mine.
I found a few interesting pieces in the bundle which I would like to get some info on if possible.

 

the first is a rotary sport workings, I have researched this and not come up with anything. I have found lots of super sports but none with just sport on.

Would any body be able to give me a possible date for this watch or any info at all.

Next is a Rolex watch face. I’m not sure if it’s real or fake, how would I tell?

Again I have researched this and come up with nothing, could not find any with what appears to be an NW logo at the bottom.

Any ideas?

I also found a little crystal in a setting, is this likely to be a diamond? Any ideas on what it belongs to?

 

 Any info much appreciated. 
 

Many thanks

Jamie

    • Hello, I am working on a eta 2970-1 and as soon as I screw down the rotor, the watch stops. The watch runs great without the automatic bridge, when I attach the automatic bridge, it continues to run well, but as soon as I attach the main rotor the watch stops. Can anyone please share schematics or pictures of the automatic bridge? I have looked up a few pictures online and it looks like I have assembled the bridge correctly after cleaning, but the fact that the watch stops as soon as the rotor puts counter pressure on the bridge, points me that there js something wrong with the automatic bridge. Thank you.

    • I think you are right wish one of the two spring should make contact do you know what one?
    • So I was cleaning an especially dirty balance spring with B-dip because several turns were sticking together.  However, after a wash and dry, it seems there are more turns sticking due to the B-Dip.  I can see it clearly in-between the spring turns and it is not evaporating.  I even stretched the spring upwards a bit to let them air out and they continue to stick.  This is after two washes.  You can still see the liquid between the springs. Not sure if anyone has seen this, but I don't know if this is an indicator of my dip going bad or being contaminated.  I would rise with IPA, but the stud and collet aren't pinned--they are either glued or shellacked so I won't risk it.  If I keep seeing this, I'll probably switch back to a heptane or naphtha for this type of cleaning, but I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this with B-Dip.
