Cheers   Mates!!

Im curentley working on a  MM300 with a Seiko 8L35B movment, and need an second reducion wheel and pinion or transmission wheel, its the on that the is rotated by the pawl lever fingers, see photo.

I have tried to find a part list, but cannot find.

I have searched for parts, but cannot find.

Is there anybody that can get me this part for this movment or parts in general??

As ususal, nice to see you all.....

That is no surprise.  Even if appreciated and sought worldwide, high segment Seiko are sold mostly in Japan, and serviced there only. The only repairer that can get parts is the official Europe Seiko service center, and I would not be surprised if they were to decline the job with some excuse.

      Yes, it looks like GT Revue 30. Doctor, You can not replace escape wheel by the dimensions You listed. One needs to know much more things like number of leaves of the pinion and it's diameter, the position in high of the table and the pinion, the hight between the pivots, the exact pivots diameter... And then, even if suitable wheel is found, one will need to know how to adjust the pallets position correctly. Restoring antique movements is something different than replacing parts. In older movements parts are not interchangeable, this means spare parts do not exist. Here the case is different, but still escapement adjustment will be needed if a wheel from a donor is found. So may be it will be easier to restore the donor for You...Restoring antique movements usually means making of the parts needed and this requires knowlage and working on lathes skill. In this case repivoting of the wheel is the natural solution, but there is a long way that one must walk untill getting ready for such work.

      How to store one dip

      I was looking at Essence of Renata, a chemical used a lot for cleaning hairsprings: "Specially prepared solution for degreasing watch and instrument components. Indispensable for degreasing hairsprings." Looking at the MSDS you can see this is just pure n-Heptane, so could be an option for those who don't want to use the chlorocarbons or hexane?     HF6013 - Horological Essence COSHH Safety Data Sheet Horological Essence_0.pdf

      Nickelsilver is right, movement diameter and keyless works ‘fingerprint’ are important for identifying movements. That said, this appears to be a 7 jewel version of the a Revue 30 movement.  A quick search with google turns up parts movements, and individual parts should be quite easy to come by.  Hope that helps, Mark
