So I just had to take the bezel off this thing to clean whatever manner of detritus was breeding underneath it. I removed it , removed the little ring thingy that I guess serves as the "Click spring" , then the plastic wheel with teeth. Everything went back together just fine, as far as I can tell, but once I press the bugger back on , it does not "Seat" down onto the case as it did before. The bezel clicks very nicely and after three attempts to remedy the issue I thought I would as  you.

 

Happy St. Georges Day

I've taken a couple of these off a 1500 aswell as the 2000 models. Its is quite difficult to bend the bezel, if it took loads of force to remove then you may well have distorted it. However, they are not the easiest bezels to re attach. I found that moving it forward and backwards and applying a fair bit of pressure it should eventually re seat. I asked my local watch repairer years ago who told me then Tag bezels are renowed for being difficult.

      Eta 2970-1 rotor mount stops watch

      By Dmitry · Posted

      Hello, I am working on a eta 2970-1 and as soon as I screw down the rotor, the watch stops. The watch runs great without the automatic bridge, when I attach the automatic bridge, it continues to run well, but as soon as I attach the main rotor the watch stops. Can anyone please share schematics or pictures of the automatic bridge? I have looked up a few pictures online and it looks like I have assembled the bridge correctly after cleaning, but the fact that the watch stops as soon as the rotor puts counter pressure on the bridge, points me that there js something wrong with the automatic bridge. Thank you.

      B-Dip residue?

      By pent · Posted

      So I was cleaning an especially dirty balance spring with B-dip because several turns were sticking together.  However, after a wash and dry, it seems there are more turns sticking due to the B-Dip.  I can see it clearly in-between the spring turns and it is not evaporating.  I even stretched the spring upwards a bit to let them air out and they continue to stick.  This is after two washes.  You can still see the liquid between the springs. Not sure if anyone has seen this, but I don't know if this is an indicator of my dip going bad or being contaminated.  I would rise with IPA, but the stud and collet aren't pinned--they are either glued or shellacked so I won't risk it.  If I keep seeing this, I'll probably switch back to a heptane or naphtha for this type of cleaning, but I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this with B-Dip.
