Securing An Impulse Jewel


Recommended Posts

I was watching one of Mark's videos on securing a impulse jewel (I have several movements with either missing or loose jewels) and I was wondering, is it a must to use shellac? I don't want to sound sacrilegious, but what about Cyanoacrylates? What would be the down side? Seems a whole heck of a lot easier.

I certainly wouldn't recommend cyanoacrylate glue. There would be no chance of making fine adjustments after the glue sets, and gassing my also be a bit if a problem which would require delicate cleaning of the lever.
