Hi all,

If anybody could help me with pointing me to the right site where I could download a Technical repair guide for the Seiko quartz 6N52, I would very appreciate it. I need to find a stem for this type of watch, but unfortunatelly when I bought it on Cousins UK, as it stated under the description, it is for this type, it didn’t fit as it was to small and it didn’t do the job. All parts have their own number, which I think the only option is through looking at a Technical guide I suppose? Thank you!

Hi,

Yes, I got this one. I could put it in, but as it seems to be too thin I suppose. It did click in but hands did not want to move. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, or there should be different one for this model. No clue. I’m new to this. 

Thank you for your response!

Ian

Sorry without having it in hand and seeing it myself I don’t think I can help you more. The only suggestion I have is that the keyless works are out of place/loose which might give you those symptoms. Maybe pictures would help us to help you?

I think it would be helpful if you gave us a better description of why you need a new stem?

the reason I'm asking is from the description sounds like you're having a problem beyond the stem. In other words you may have to disassemble and see why the stem is not doing what it's supposed to be doing.

Hi,

thank you for your reply. I’ve uploaded some of the images of this particular watch. I hope that helps to get the general idea. I’m no expert on this. Could’t do any better. Probably I would need to dissasemble the movement to get more info about what might be the issue here? Thanks!

Not much information seems to be available for this movement. Can't find any technical or replacement movements.

But the first two links talk about the movements themselves. The reason for the 53 is you get down to the comments they suggest an alternative but they're not sure. You'd have to look at the specifications of the movement you have versus the suggestion of alternative. The alternative comes from basically the OEM division of Seiko. So that their suggestion third link would be the replacement movement and I've attached the PDF of the manual for that. Probably the easy way to tell is see if the stems of the same but the manual may be close enough to help you with yours but based on the cost the movement and the probably better just to get a new movements unless you just want the fun of taking it apart.

      AS2063 - hand setting

      By Mercurial · Posted

      Have you got the pallet fork installed in the movement when you see the train move when using the setting works? As nevenbekriev said, without the pallet fork to lock the train, the behaviour you are describing is normal. If this is happening with the pallet fork installed, you have a problem in the gear train, it should be immobile when the pallet fork is locking the escape wheel.  The fit of the circlip above the pinions on that wheel is crooked in your pictures, it should sit flat up against the upper pinion as in Marc’s picture.  Hope that helps, Mark

      Stem broken - can it be rescued?

      By Khan · Posted

      Hi I got a Jaeger LeCoultre K911 movement, where one of the stems was broken. Part no. Should be 401.  Im based in Europe and tried Cousins but its discontinued. They except to get stem in stock for cal. K916 but will that work? Or Is there a way out to join the ends?

      The part was how it fell out of the movement - the train wheel bridge wasn’t screwed in.    I’ll probably dismantle the part, if I can, to work it out.    The train of wheels ran fine - it was only once the keyless works were installed I noticed the problem.

      Balance staff sourcing?

      By mthomas828 · Posted

      Hello, I am about 5 months into watchmaking and I love it!   The attention to precise detail is what really attracts me to it. (and the tools!) I am working on a 16 jewel 43mm pocket watch movement.   There are no markings besides a serial number (122248) .  The balance staff needs replacement. The roller side pivot broke off.  I successfully removed the hairspring using Bergeon 5430's.  I successfully removed the roller using Bergeon 2810.   Did i mention I love the tools?! I removed the staff from the balance wheel using a vintage K&D staff removal tool  with my Bergeon 15285 (that's the one that comes with a micrometer adjustment so it can be used as a jewel press as well as a traditional staking tool...it's sooooo cool...sorry..  can you tell i love the tools?) No more digressing..  I measured the damaged staff in all the relevant areas but I have to estimate on some because one of the pivots is missing. A = Full length  A= 4.80mm  (that's without the one pivot...if you assume that the missing pivot is the same length as the other pivot (I'm sure it's not)  then A = 5.12 mm...(can I assume 5.00mm here?) F=  Hair spring collet seat  F=  .89mm   (safe to assume .90 here? .. I am sure that my measurement's would at least contain  .01 mm error ?) G = balance wheel seat  G = 1.23 mm  (1.20mm?) H  =  roller staff  H =  .59mm  (.60 mm?) B  = bottom of the wheel to roller pivot   B  = 2.97mm  (3.00 mm?)     here I am estimating  again because this pivot is missing. So my friends, and I thank you profusely,  can you point me in the right direction as to how to proceed? Do i buy individual staffs?  or an assortment?   Since I don't know exactly the name of the manufacturer, will that be a fatal hindrance?   Tbh, I'm not even sure what country of origin this movement is. Thank you!

      Epilame / Fixodrop

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      Thats why i asked that question earlier, what happens if lubrication is placed directly on top of epilame ?  As opposed to walled within its non epilamed area . I'm not saying its right, i have no idea , just asking questions.
