Omega Jedi 176.007 Movement Tension Ring Sourcing


Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone. 

Currently working on an Omega 176.007 that is missing the movement tension ring that sits between the caseback and the movement ring which is seen in the picture below.

Since it's missing that spring, the movement sits loose inside the case and scratches against the caseback. Does anyone know where these can be found? Generic or original. The outer diameter is 31,7mm and inner diameter is 30,5mm. 

Thanks(:

Omega  caseback numbers are searching for parts can be challenging  unless you convert them to the correct number..  The decimal point in the number isn't really a decimal point it's just a separating thing  don't know what the collet it just isn't the decimal point so the correct number you looking for is 176.0007.. Go to cousins do a document search and come up a whole bunch of different documents  for different versions of the same case.

Daniel come up with something like the PDF I have attached I'm guessing that This is what you're looking for

Then looking up movement ring reveals that they appear to be available on eBay  but thereby movement number and you didn't give us a movement number.  That means I have to guess  yes it's an educated guess based on bonus extra time looking on the Internet  and we come up with this no idea if it would work.  Maybe off the email the seller and ask..

    • Now thats a real man's tool press 👍. I have one just like it in my back garden for when just CANT fix a watch . Its not something i have had to do yet, @Waggybut wouldn't any type of press be able to do this ? What about an adapted chain link  extractor work or a micrometer with some sleeve pushers made to slot over the ends. @Waggy Found something that could work Scott, comes with different size pins and pushers. Only bit that would need making is a round former to support the inside of the case, a piece of stout timber, bit of oak or mdf might do it. What i like about this one is the pin is pushed in, its in a sliding sleeve so it doesn't turn while its being driven. This has 4 pin sizes and 3 stumps as well so it will come in for other applications, the pins could be adapted to take other accessories from jewelling tools. I've just ordered one myself for some play time. 
    • So I purchased this one based on my case number being listed. (Unless my case number is incorrect. The last digits are faint)
    • I have the same tool from AliExpress and get the same anxiety when when using it. But you have to admit it looks awesome on your tool shelf. Makes you look like a pro. 🤣 Looking at the photo of the Horotec tool, it looks equally flimsy. It probably comes from the same factory. I was thinking of using the pushers supplied with the tool and making a hand tool from a cranked jeweller's punch. I'll grind off the tip of the punch and drill a hole at the end to fit the pusher in. The cranked shank would be able to clear the watch case give a straight in-line axis to exert force to tap the pendant tube out. Should be robust enough to last several lifetimes. I wonder why nobody makes it. 🤔
    • It reminds me of Ukrainian eBay sellers of Russian watches. More often than not the listings include the phrase "Serviced by Master Watchmaker". Of course, they never are, and it should be expected. It's the most corrupt country in Europe, definitely on par with Russia. Today our tiny country (Sweden) sent them another $1 232 255 518 with no accountability whatsoever for how the money will be used.
    • Now that is taking it a bit far. You are going to need a bloody big workshop.
