Hi. I have a watch and I noticed that some screws are missing from the movements assembly inside. I searched its movement type on the internet and I saw they have the same missing. Is it common or a 'broken' thing?

 

This is my watch :http://i.imgur.com/8I40YTv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/8bkLCsi.jpg http://i.imgur.com/oLT0MSa.jpg http://i.imgur.com/5sPfTto.jpg http://i.imgur.com/8vv4AEA.jpg

This is the one from the net :http://http://manufakturaczasu.pl/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Lanco-Automatic-21J-31.jpg

Thanks.

The pic from the net gave me a blank screen. However, yours appeared OK. The missing screws appear to be case screws, which would be needed to hold the movement securely into its case. However, some casings use movement rings - plastic or metal - to hold the movement in place, making the screws redundant. If the movement in your watch is nice and firm - doesn't rattle or wobble - then it's held in place by a movement ring. No screws necessary.

      Mike, you have summed it up following the KISS principle.   Tom

      I think this is pretty typical when you have something that crosses many regional and international borders. @Neverenoughwatches yes Rich, that is the common way, learning from our teachers, however terms used in Yorkshire could easily be a lot different for tools, techniques or methods different from Scotland or Somerset. My (long winded) point is it all depends on where you first picked up the terms, if from books American watch terminology differs from English terminology and to a degree Swiss terminology. That also seems to extend to watchmaking schools. Confusing at first starting out but like anything else you get used to it. This will be why our long term members attach a glossary to new users introducing themselves as beginning their journey.    Tom

      Need Advice for Armoured Crystal

      Personally I would just replace like for like.Or just polish the old crystal and refit.

      I've also heard it called the "top side" and the dial side the "bottom side", which should make any non-repairer very confused. There are many examples and sometimes it comes down to personal preference. Personally, I like to say "dial train" whereas most other people would use the term "motion works".

      Is magnetism such a major problem that we (as home hobbyists) need to spend $$$ on a fancy demagnetiser? I use one of the cheap blue Chinese demagnetisers (£10 from ebay). It works, and has never failed to demagnetise a movement, or my screwdrivers. Magnetometer - who needs one?  Take a very small screw. If it sticks to the clean part, it is magnetised 🤣
