good and bad of your question? The reason I'm saying that is I looked at this and I thought what the heck is this no pictures but because you didn't give me a picture I did a search for the exact part I quoted up above and it's always amazing what you can find online by doing a search like for instance this. I assume you'll find what you seek their.

Another home remodeling problem nipped in the bud for me, thank you. I was just getting attracted to Orient watches, and without this post would have needed a contractor by next week. My propensity for leaping large before I look would have necessitated the building of the Orient wing at my house by now.

Well, that's the incorrect calibre, I've already searched for 46e40, now I need 46r40. Please be more careful what you say, because these two movement's are totally different. In 46r40 there is a power reserve indication etc. So I asked for an oiling map for this direct movement

Unfortunately, technical documents for the various Orient movements are difficult to find. Likely, your only approach will be to study other technical documents of Orient movements (like when I serviced the 46E40 calibre) and then use your general experience and knowledge of oiling. If unsure of a particular part or section, take some macro pictures and I'm sure some experienced and generous pros like @JohnR725 will be happy to share their expertise. 

A certain amount of humility is a good way to get professionals to share their knowledge.

For sure, as much as I understood from your answer (English is not my native language) it was rather offensive. Anyways this platform is not for trash talking, so thank you for any answer

unfortunately technical literature is often extremely difficult to find. For this watch I looked in the usual sources and I can find nothing. this is where you make use of other watches that are similar including other brands or anything you can find because that's all you're going to get.

I'm sorry that somehow I've offended you and you feel I talk trash let's solve the problem forever.

If you roll your mouse over somebody's name I suggest you do this for me a image will pop up just like this

you'll notice I circled something if you click that you go to another page it looks like this

the analysis of this discussion is my method of communication conflicts with yours. As I didn't recognize this and I still don't recognize exactly what I've done the easiest solution to this is to avoid these unpleasant situations forever. then yes message boards have these features for these type of situations it solves a problem permanently

    • Actually one would not claim such thing  about the power reserve without check to confirm this, but if any difference, it will be verry small.
    • Another question if I may. When you guys buy watch lots are you buying a mix of mechanical and quartz as well? Most of the job lots I am finding (all overseas) are a mix. If they are all mechanical, it is generally just movements with no cases. I am not at the point where I can identify movements by just viewing them so I'm not inclined to buy a bunch of stuff which will just end up lying around. Is anyone able to successfully move any of the watches they save on to someone else? I can't see a viable market in Australia for refurbished watches. Most people I have seen at work only have a watch if it counts their steps, answers their phone and makes the coffee. I'll admit it, I have a super cheap smartwatch on my wrist. Will I buy another one when it quits? Doubt it. I don't know if I would even bother with a pedometer. Heart rate? And do what with all the data? Blood pressure? Never been right since I got the watch. Sleep? If I can't work out that I'm not getting enough, I need to have a serious talk with myself. I think I'll go back to my Seiko and just make myself stay active.
    • I suppose this fits "best" in this forum 😃 Im looking for some wall 'art' that doubles as a reference. Specifically Id like to find an ETA 28xx or Sellita exploded movement view. 2824/2836 would be ideal. Have any of you seen/found such a thing - there seem to be a lot of these for specialized movements, and none of them ready to print or to be had as a poster. Why help is appreciated.
    • The diameter is that of the ring - afaik, will have to look it up. “Wiggle room“ doesn‘t matter as long as the spring length is in the ball park.  Essential sizes of a mainspring are thickness, width and length. Diameter is just a hint if you can push into the barrel directly or will need a winder, it is no property of the spring. Frank
