Purchased online and waiting for it to arrive. its a bit rough but im assuming from the pictures its all in workable condition - it will be a nice project to clean up and use,

 

anyone with this item agree with my logic or have i just bought a piece of scrap? - interested in ensuring the precision

 

as usual thanks in advance

Ok guys ive got a bigger one of these that I use for measuring run out etc on brake discs, im a tad confused what the use this has in horology apart from maybe seeing if arbors are bent etc

It's not just a simple DTI, it is a specialised tool developed for horology. Have a look at this video and you will see the what it is capable of. The clip of the instructions is worth pausing, as it clearly shows the types of measurements the tool can be used for.

    • Bringing this old thread back to life, as I have similar problem. I did follow this advice, but while inserting a male stem (crown side) and just pushed it to the female part, and the fork (female side) of the stem has broken. What is the right way? Push the stem part so it widens the gap and fits in? Why it was then receiving side got broken? Old metal? It is a vintage watch from late 60s.    or the outer part should be inserted somehow from the side (slipping to the gap), but I don’t have space there for this manipulation. The watch is Orient Fineness monocoque case.   thank you!  
    • Thats insane Nev that you cut those tiny pinion teeth with a cutter you designed and made. 
    • I certainly do Razz. Ive just started work on this AS554, interestingly enough it had a paper dial made from a postcard , look at the brand name on the dial, very curious. 
    • [SBGA405] Grand Seiko “Godzilla” Spring DriveI always enjoy coming back at the end of the week to my first Spring Drive watch which is a combined automatic mechanical watch and a high quality quartz — a Spring Drive.Impressive accuracy (10 seconds per month) and wears remarkably comfortable at 44.5 mm in diameter and 95 gm.Love the power reserve indicator, and the colour of the dial amd the watch band.One of my “perfect” watches!!😍
    • Yep, so we got a 10 1/2  ligne movement, thats the starting point now these bad boys books should hopefully get us across the finishing line . Next we need a good clear picture of that rocking bar, the setting lever and the setting lever spring. I've already got an idea what it might be.
