Omega 40,6 L Balance staff broken to be replaced


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

If somebody can help.

I have to replace a broken balance staff , I found one , and I trust the seller ( urdelar.se) , but it do not fit in the balance? 

It's a special technique? or what ! Did somebody work on one like this?

It's a pocket watch but I think Omega is Omega cannot be such a difference!

Thank you,

Tibi V sr

Hi   The staffs and the rim look ok, but the pictures are not clear.  in what way does the new staff not fit, too large on the rim, too small on the rim, 

Check out the web site " Ranfft  omega 40.6L" it will give you the spec sheet for your watch including the balance staff Number so you may check it with what you ordered.  Attached is the ronda cat page containing your caliber 40.6L giving total height of the staff     1865    17'''   40.6       Height 482.

    • You could also use a very fine artist's brush to brush between the coils.  If you gat a size 00 or even 000 that should be small enough for convenience, and with bristles so fine that they are incapable of damaging the hairspring.  Get a good one though, like Windsor-Newton or similar.  I have never had a Windsor-Newton brush shed on my art or other work.  You want a soft brush that will not shed.
    • Sounds interesting but how do you push the button if you’re holding both ends? the large current draw overheats after 3-5 seconds and the thermister triggers. A great tool for magnetizing things but I’ve not be able to ever demag anything with it because the emf is so strong it pulls the item off center (down or up).   I paid $89 bucks for it from  CAS-KER, if someone on the board wants it I’d gladly sell it for $25 plus shipping (probably US only otherwise postal costs are prohibitive). Just sent me a note offline.
    • Hi. First thing to do is measure your oil movement as the vx32E and the 43 look very similar but one is a couple of mill smaller the vx32E.  Also the canon pinion heights differ attached tech sheets for 7N22. And  VX43, check details on the sheets. 7N22A_29A_33A_42A_43A.pdf VX43.pdf Hattori VX32E - Specification.pdf Hattori VX32E - Disassemble.pdf
    • Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum. We all look forward to your contributions and continued involvement. 
    • I was spitting out flowers and leaves for 10 minutes,  fortunately 3  people saw it and promptly whipped out their phones to film the quick " nothing to see here " recovery  🤣🤣
