After a long delay, I finally got the shock springs reinserted! I taped down the small bridge that held the jewel to my steel riveting anvil so it wouldn't move around and that helped a lot. The spring on the main body was easy in comparison. I purchased 25 springs from H&W Perrin in Canada ($9 with shipping) and found a good fit for the one I lost. Alex has great videos, which helped me with the spring. This Westclox with a Seiko movement is fighting me every step of the way. I'm sure it was never serviced. Almost every screw was frozen and needed a good soaking. The transmission fluid/penetrating oil combo worked best. The good news is that everything is in great shape.

Hello all, I'm reactivating this old thread with a question. I've of course watched Marc's video. I'm just wondering if that pin in the center of the anvil he's making (on the lathe to push out the bearing) is really necessary. I have an anvil that has a hole just the right size to fit the bearing and hold the rotor, but it doesn't have that center pin. I've seen other videos online where people do without the pin. Cheers

Strange, I can find what you want on CousinsUK but nothing in the US. -
