Orient 46943 slow moving crown in the second position after assembling.

[vivat]

Hi I have an issue with the crown. After assembling of the mechanism crown is moving slower than it should in the second position (time setting position to be correct). So, may be someone can give me a decent advice how to fix it please  

Well problem is not with the crown to be honest, may be something about wheels idk

I've spoken with vivat in a private chat, what's happening is when pulling the crown to second position (time setting) it becomes very hard to turn and set the time. I've suggested removing the hands and dial and checking again, then the date/dial giard plate and checking again. It sounds like there's an issue with the motion works.

I don‘t understand what a „slow moving crown“ is.

If the crown is hard to turn it can be a seized canon pinion.

also rmove the cannon pinion as well as the day/date  complications and expose the motion work problem could be related to any part of it its a matter of reducing it to basics then rebuilding and testing as you go.      cheers

I concur with WW on this ,  test each part's workings  as you disassemble, more important when reassembling.
