Sometimes you are the windshield! I have been anticipating this lot coming in. No pictures of the movement, but the dial looked good. When it arrived, it was better that I could have imagined! Only missing the seconds hand, winding stem and crown. But everything else original. I opened the back and was not disappointed...ETA 1256. According the Ranftt, first ETA automatic (Etarotor). As I gazed in wide wonder, I used a piece of pegwood to move the rotor from covering the balance. It was beating and strong!! It stopped shortly after but got it to go again. Hopefully a servicing will be all this needs... -

I stumbled upon a really nice technical guide that actually shows the order that parts are reinstalled into the movement. As a new comer to this hobby, this is a huge benefit to have. See the PDF for the ETA movement below for what I mean and look on pp's 6 & 7 in the box where it says "Assembling ...." Better Version_Hamilton 742_Dads_ORCO_Watch_936_ETA 963.111, 963.121.pdf Now, with this Seiko technical guide, I don't see anything labeled as such. Is there a way to read the drawing that will tell me the same thing? Is it just follow the circled numbers? I see in the legend on p 2 it says something like that, but just wanted to be certain.

I think it would be incredibly cool to lathe your own parts. Unfortunately, I have yet to see one that is inexpensive.

Hi Richard No problem , I think as far as lacquer is concerned best get the ones recommended like Horolacq (cousins). and yes you will need to peg the holes to remove any build up.
